The version of PDF-XChange Editor installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 10.4.0.387. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A specific flaw exists within the parsing of XPS files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of     user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this     vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. (CVE-2024-8838)

  - A specific flaw exists within the parsing of JB2 files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of     user-supplied data, which can result in a read past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this     vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. (CVE-2024-8840)
