CVE-2017-3118
Adobe Acrobat Reader 2017.009.20058 and earlier, 2017.008.30051 and earlier, 2015.006.30306 and earlier, and 11.0.20 and earlier has a security bypass vulnerability related to execution of malicious attachments.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (8.89%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
