According to its version, the Foxit PhantomPDF application (formally known as Phantom) installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 10.1.10. It is, therefore affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A use-after-free vulnerability exists in the JavaScript engine of Foxit Software's PDF Reader, version     12.0.1.12430. By prematurely deleting objects associated with pages, a specially-crafted PDF document can     trigger the reuse of previously freed memory, which can lead to arbitrary code execution. An attacker     needs to trick the user into opening the malicious file to trigger this vulnerability. Exploitation is     also possible if a user visits a specially-crafted, malicious site if the browser plugin extension is     enabled. (CVE-2022-32774)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability exists in the JavaScript engine of Foxit Software's PDF Reader, version     12.0.1.12430. A specially-crafted PDF document can trigger the reuse of previously freed memory via     misusing media player API, which can lead to arbitrary code execution. An attacker needs to trick the user     into opening the malicious file to trigger this vulnerability. Exploitation is also possible if a user     visits a specially-crafted, malicious site if the browser plugin extension is enabled. (CVE-2022-37332)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability exists in the JavaScript engine of Foxit Software's PDF Reader, version     12.0.1.12430. By prematurely destroying annotation objects, a specially-crafted PDF document can trigger     the reuse of previously freed memory, which can lead to arbitrary code execution. An attacker needs to     trick the user into opening the malicious file to trigger this vulnerability. Exploitation is also     possible if a user visits a specially-crafted, malicious site if the browser plugin extension is enabled.
    (CVE-2022-38097)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability exists in the JavaScript engine of Foxit Software's PDF Reader, version     12.0.1.12430. A specially-crafted PDF document can trigger the reuse of previously freed memory via     misusing Optional Content Group API, which can lead to arbitrary code execution. An attacker needs to     trick the user into opening the malicious file to trigger this vulnerability. Exploitation is also     possible if a user visits a specially-crafted, malicious site if the browser plugin extension is enabled.
    (CVE-2022-40129)

  - Addressed potential issues where the application could be exposed to Read Access Violation, Use-after-     Free, or Out-of-Bounds Read vulnerability and crash when parsing certain U3D files, which could be     exploited by attackers to execute remote code or disclose information. This occurs as the application     accesses the array or iterator outside the bounds, or uses the wild pointer or object that has been freed     without proper validation. (CVE-2022-43637, CVE-2022-43638, CVE-2022-43639, CVE-2022-43640,     CVE-2022-43641) (CVE-2022-43637, CVE-2022-43638, CVE-2022-43639, CVE-2022-43640, CVE-2022-43641)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
