InDesign Desktop versions 19.5.3 and earlier are affected by a Heap-based Buffer Overflow vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.

The version of Adobe InDesign installed on the remote macOS host is prior to 19.5.4, 20.4.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the APSB25-60 advisory.
