Adobe InDesign CC < 15.1.2 Arbitrary Code Execution (APSB20-52) (macOS)

high Nessus Plugin ID 140605

Language:

Synopsis

The remote host has an application installed that is affected by an arbitrary code execution vulnerability.

Description

The version of Adobe InDesign installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is prior to 15.1.2. It is, therefore, affected by an arbitrary code execution vulnerability that exists due to insecure handling of indd files. An attacker can exploit this issue to cause an out-of-bounds memory access, potentially resulting in code execution in the context of the current user.

Solution

Upgrade to Adobe InDesign version 15.1.2 or later.
