log4net.dll security vulnerability in Digital Edition (WIN)

My organization is using the FortiClient application for the purposes of identifying security vulnerabilities in applications. It has identified log4net.dll as installed by the most recent version of Adobe Digital Editions for windows as a security vulnerabilty. It categorizes it as critical. Is there an update on the way that would eliminate this vulnerability?

 

Thanks!
