CVE-2015-5096
Heap-based buffer overflow in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 10.x before 10.1.15 and 11.x before 11.0.12, Acrobat and Acrobat Reader DC Classic before 2015.006.30060, and Acrobat and Acrobat Reader DC Continuous before 2015.008.20082 on Windows and OS X…
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (6.35%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
