Synopsis

The version of Adobe Reader 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 11.0.3, 10.1.7, or 9.5.5. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- Unspecified memory corruption issues exist that allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-2718, CVE-2013-2719, CVE-2013-2720, CVE-2013-2721, CVE-2013-2722, CVE-2013-2723, CVE-2013-2725, CVE-2013-2726, CVE-2013-2731, CVE-2013-2732, CVE-2013-2734, CVE-2013-2735, CVE-2013-2736, CVE-2013-3337, CVE-2013-3338, CVE-2013-3339, CVE-2013-3340, CVE-2013-3341, CVE-2013-3346)

- An integer underflow condition exists that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-2549)

- A use-after-free error exists that allows an attacker to bypass the Adobe Reader's sandbox protection. (CVE-2013-2550)

- A flaw exists in the JavaScript API that allows an attacker to obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2013-2737)

- An unspecified stack overflow condition exists that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-2724)

- Multiple unspecified buffer overflow conditions exist that allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-2730, CVE-2013-2733)

- Multiple unspecified integer overflow conditions exist that allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-2727, CVE-2013-2729)

- A flaw exists due to improper handling of operating system domain blacklists. An attacker can exploit this to have an unspecified impact. (CVE-2013-3342)

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 11.0.3 / 10.1.7 / 9.5.5 or later.

How to Run

Here is how to run the Adobe Reader < 11.0.3 / 10.1.7 / 9.5.5 Multiple Vulnerabilities (APSB13-15) (Mac OS X) 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 MacOS X Local Security Checks plugin family.
On the right side table select Adobe Reader < 11.0.3 / 10.1.7 / 9.5.5 Multiple Vulnerabilities (APSB13-15) (Mac OS X) plugin ID 66411.
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 macosx_adobe_reader_apsb13-15.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with audit trail message on the console:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -a macosx_adobe_reader_apsb13-15.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with trace script execution written to the console (useful for debugging):

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -T - macosx_adobe_reader_apsb13-15.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 macosx_adobe_reader_apsb13-15.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Go back to menu.
