Synopsis

Adobe Photoshop installed on remote macOS or Mac OS X host is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The version of Adobe Photoshop installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is prior to 22.5.5/23.1.1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the apsb22-08 advisory.

 - Adobe Photoshop versions 22.5.4 (and earlier) and 23.1 (and earlier) are affected by a buffer overflow vulnerability due to insecure handling of a crafted file, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploitation requires user interaction in that a victim must open a crafted file in Photoshop. (CVE-2022-23203)
