Synopsis

The version of Adobe Reader installed on the remote Mac OS X host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Adobe Reader installed on the remote Mac OS X host is prior to 11.0.17, 15.006.30198, or 15.017.20050. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

 - Multiple unspecified memory corruption issues exist due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-4191, CVE-2016-4192, CVE-2016-4193, CVE-2016-4194, CVE-2016-4195, CVE-2016-4196, CVE-2016-4197, CVE-2016-4198, CVE-2016-4199, CVE-2016-4200, CVE-2016-4201, CVE-2016-4202, CVE-2016-4203, CVE-2016-4204, CVE-2016-4205, CVE-2016-4206, CVE-2016-4207, CVE-2016-4208, CVE-2016-4211, CVE-2016-4212, CVE-2016-4213, CVE-2016-4214, CVE-2016-4250, CVE-2016-4251, CVE-2016-4252, CVE-2016-4254, CVE-2016-4265, CVE-2016-4266, CVE-2016-4267, CVE-2016-4268, CVE-2016-4269, CVE-2016-4270, CVE-2016-6937)

 - An unspecified heap buffer overflow condition exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-4209)

 - An unspecified integer overflow condition exists that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-4210)

 - An unspecified flaw exists that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to bypass the JavaScript API and execute arbitrary code.
 CVE-2016-4215)

 - An unspecified use-after-free error exists that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-4255, CVE-2016-6938)

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

Solution

Upgrade to Adobe Reader version 11.0.17 / 15.006.30198 / 15.017.20050 or later.
