high Nessus Plugin ID 149480

Synopsis

The remote host has an application installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Adobe InDesign installed on the remote Windows host is prior or equal to 16.2.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple out-of-bounds write vulnerabilities that could lead to code execution in the context of the current user.

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

Solution

Upgrade to Adobe InDesign version 16.2.1 or later.
