    descriptionThe version of Adobe Reader installed on the remote Windows host is a version prior to 11.0.20, 2015.006.30306, or 2017.009.20044. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities : - Multiple use-after-free errors exist that allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-3014, CVE-2017-3026, CVE-2017-3027, CVE-2017-3035, CVE-2017-3047, CVE-2017-3057) - Multiple heap buffer overflow conditions exist that allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-3042, CVE-2017-3048, CVE-2017-3049, CVE-2017-3055) - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-3015, CVE-2017-3017, CVE-2017-3018, CVE-2017-3019, CVE-2017-3023, CVE-2017-3024, CVE-2017-3025, CVE-2017-3028, CVE-2017-3030, CVE-2017-3036, CVE-2017-3037, CVE-2017-3038, CVE-2017-3039, CVE-2017-3040, CVE-2017-3041, CVE-2017-3044, CVE-2017-3050, CVE-2017-3051, CVE-2017-3054, CVE-2017-3056, CVE-2017-3065) - Multiple integer overflow conditions exist that allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-3011, CVE-2017-3034) - Multiple memory corruption issues exist that allow an an attacker to disclose memory address information. (CVE-2017-3020, CVE-2017-3021, CVE-2017-3022, CVE-2017-3029, CVE-2017-3031, CVE-2017-3032, CVE-2017-3033, CVE-2017-3043, CVE-2017-3045, CVE-2017-3046, CVE-2017-3052, CVE-2017-3053) - A flaw exists due to the use of an insecure directory search path. An attacker can potentially exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-3012, CVE-2017-3013) Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application
