Adobe Acrobat Reader versions 23.003.20244 (and earlier) and 20.005.30467 (and earlier) are affected by an out-of-bounds read vulnerability that could lead to disclosure of sensitive memory. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to bypass mitigations such as ASLR. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.

The version of Adobe Acrobat installed on the remote macOS host is a version prior to 20.005.30514.10514 or 23.003.20269. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

  - Adobe Acrobat Reader versions 23.003.20244 (and earlier) and 20.005.30467 (and earlier) are affected by an     Access of Uninitialized Pointer vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context     of the current user. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a     malicious file. (CVE-2023-38226, CVE-2023-38234, CVE-2023-38246)

  - Adobe Acrobat Reader versions 23.003.20244 (and earlier) and 20.005.30467 (and earlier) are affected by an     Violation of Secure Design Principles vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the     context of the current user by bypassing the API blacklisting feature. Exploitation of this issue requires     user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file. (CVE-2023-29320)

  - Adobe Acrobat Reader versions 23.003.20244 (and earlier) and 20.005.30467 (and earlier) are affected by an     Untrusted Search Path vulnerability that could lead to Application denial-of-service. An attacker could     leverage this vulnerability if the default PowerShell Set-ExecutionPolicy is set to Unrestricted, making     the attack complexity high. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must     open a malicious file. (CVE-2023-29299)

  - Adobe Acrobat Reader versions 23.003.20244 (and earlier) and 20.005.30467 (and earlier) are affected by a     Use After Free vulnerability that could lead to disclosure of sensitive memory. An attacker could leverage     this vulnerability to bypass mitigations such as ASLR. Exploitation of this issue requires user     interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file. (CVE-2023-29303)

  - Adobe Acrobat Reader versions 23.003.20244 (and earlier) and 20.005.30467 (and earlier) are affected by a     Use After Free vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current     user. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
    (CVE-2023-38222, CVE-2023-38224, CVE-2023-38225, CVE-2023-38227, CVE-2023-38228)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
