Synopsis
The version of Adobe Reader on the remote Windows host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.
Description
The version of Adobe Reader installed on the remote Windows host is earlier than 10.1.1 / 9.4.6 / 8.3.1. It is, therefore, potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities :
- An unspecified error exists that allows local privilege escalation attacks. (CVE-2011-1353)
- An unspecified error exists that can allow an attacker to bypass security leading to code execution. (CVE-2011-2431)
- Several errors exist that allow buffer overflows leading to code execution. (CVE-2011-2432, CVE-2011-2435)
- Several errors exist that allow heap overflows leading to code execution. (CVE-2011-2433, CVE-2011-2434, CVE-2011-2436, CVE-2011-2437)
- Several errors exist that allow stack overflows leading to code execution. (CVE-2011-2438)
- An error exists that can allow memory leaks leading to code execution. (CVE-2011-2439)
- A use-after-free error exists that can allow code exection. (CVE-2011-2440)
- Several errors exist in the 'CoolType.dll' library that can allow stack overflows leading to code execution. (CVE-2011-2441)
- A logic error exists that can lead to code execution. (CVE-2011-2442)
- Multiple issues exist as noted in APSB11-21, a security update for Adobe Flash Player. (CVE-2011-2130, CVE-2011-2134, CVE-2011-2135, CVE-2011-2136, CVE-2011-2137, CVE-2011-2138, CVE-2011-2139, CVE-2011-2140, CVE-2011-2414, CVE-2011-2415, CVE-2011-2416, CVE-2011-2417, CVE-2011-2425, CVE-2011-2424)

Here's the list of publicly known exploits and PoCs for verifying the Adobe Reader < 10.1.1 / 9.4.6 / 8.3.1 Multiple Vulnerabilities (APSB11-21, APSB11-24) vulnerability:
- Metasploit: exploit/windows/browser/adobe_flash_sps
[Adobe Flash Player MP4 SequenceParameterSetNALUnit Buffer Overflow] - Exploit-DB: exploits/windows/remote/18437.txt
[EDB-18437: Adobe Flash Player - MP4 SequenceParameterSetNALUnit Remote Code Execution] - Exploit-DB: exploits/windows/remote/18479.rb

How to Run
Here is how to run the Adobe Reader < 10.1.1 / 9.4.6 / 8.3.1 Multiple Vulnerabilities (APSB11-21, APSB11-24) as a standalone plugin via the Nessus web user interface (https://localhost:8834/):
- Click to start a New Scan.
- Select Advanced Scan.
- Navigate to the Plugins tab.
- On the top right corner click to Disable All plugins.
- On the left side table select Windows plugin family.
- On the right side table select Adobe Reader < 10.1.1 / 9.4.6 / 8.3.1 Multiple Vulnerabilities (APSB11-21, APSB11-24) plugin ID 56198.
- Specify the target on the Settings tab and click to Save the scan.
- Run the scan.
Here are a few examples of how to run the plugin in the command line. Note that the examples below demonstrate the usage on the Linux / Unix platform.
Basic usage:
/opt/nessus/bin/nasl adobe_reader_apsb11-24.nasl -t <IP/HOST>
Run the plugin with audit trail message on the console:
/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -a adobe_reader_apsb11-24.nasl -t <IP/HOST>
Run the plugin with trace script execution written to the console (useful for debugging):
/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -T - adobe_reader_apsb11-24.nasl -t <IP/HOST>
Run the plugin with using a state file for the target and updating it (useful for running multiple plugins on the target):
/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -K /tmp/state adobe_reader_apsb11-24.nasl -t <IP/HOST>
