That fix for FrameMaker by Adobe is reported for version 1.0.5.1 and below. My FM version is 15 something. Surely they aren't patching FrameMaker versions from 1990?

Looks like they've only patched it in FM2019.

Adobe Framemaker is prone to a privilege-escalation vulnerability.

Attackers can exploit these issues to gain elevated privileges.
