DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Adobe Reader /
Acrobat, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting attacks, disclose potentially sensitive
information, bypass certain security restrictions, and compromise a
user's system.
1) An error in 3difr.x3d due to the component trusting the provided
string length when processing certain files can be exploited to cause
a stack-based buffer overflow.
2) An error in tesselate.x3d due to the component trusting the
provided string length when processing certain files can be exploited
to cause a stack-based buffer overflow.
3) An unspecified error can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer
overflow.
4) An integer overflow error in ACE.dll when parsing the "desc" ICC
chunk can be exploited to corrupt memory via a specially crafted PDF
file.
5) An unspecified error can be exploited to corrupt memory.
6) An unspecified error can be exploited to corrupt memory.
7) An error due to the application loading certain unspecified
libraries in an insecure manner can be exploited to load arbitrary
libraries by tricking a user into e.g. opening a file located on a
remote WebDAV or SMB share.
8) Certain unspecified input is not properly sanitised and can be
exploited to execute arbitrary script code.
9) An unspecified error can be exploited to bypass certain security
restrictions.
This vulnerability affects Adobe Reader and Acrobat X 10.x only.
10) An unspecified error can be exploited to corrupt memory.
This vulnerability affects 8.x versions only.
11) An unspecified error can be exploited to corrupt memory.
12) An unspecified error can be exploited to corrupt memory.
13) An unspecified error can be exploited to corrupt memory.
14) The application bundles a vulnerable version of Adobe Flash
Player.
