Summary
The host is installed with Adobe Reader
and is prone to multiple vulnerabilities.
Impact
Successful exploitation will allow
attackers to disclose potentially sensitive information, bypass certain security restrictions, execute arbitrary code and compromise a user's system.

Solution
Upgrade to Adobe Reader version 10.1.13 or
11.0.10 or later. For updates refer,

Insight
Multiple Flaws are due to,
- Multiple use-after-free errors can be exploited to execute arbitrary code.
- Multiple unspecified errors can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow and subsequently execute arbitrary code.
- A Race condition in the MoveFileEx call hook feature allows attackers to bypass a sandbox protection mechanism.
- An error within the implementation of a Javascript API can be exploited to disclose certain information.
- Multiple integer overflow errors can be exploited to execute arbitrary code.
Affected
Adobe Reader 10.x before 10.1.13 and
Adobe Reader 11.x before 11.0.10 on MAC OS X.
