CVE-2021-21061
Acrobat Pro DC versions versions 2020.013.20074 (and earlier), 2020.001.30018 (and earlier) and 2017.011.30188 (and earlier) are affected by a Use-after-free vulnerability when parsing a specially crafted PDF file.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.08%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
