Synopsis

The Adobe InCopy instance installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Adobe InCopy installed on the remote host is prior to 16.4.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the APSB21-71 advisory.

 - Adobe InCopy version 11.1 (and earlier) is affected by a memory corruption vulnerability due to insecure handling of a malicious XML file, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user.
