Synopsis

Adobe Animate installed on remote Windows host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities

Description

The version of Adobe Animate installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 23.0.16 or 24.0.14. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the apsb26-83 advisory.

 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') (CWE-78) potentially leading to Arbitrary code execution (CVE-2026-48345, CVE-2026-48347)
