Adobe Describes Holes, Offers Patches Three months after acknowledging multiple vulnerabilities in its popular Reader software and then patching the program, Adobe Tuesday finally provided some details about the bugs. In a security bulletin issued Tuesday, Adobe listed eight vulnerabilities -- most of them critical -- that it patched in early February when it released Reader 8.1.2 and Acrobat 8.1.2. At the time, Adobe had only said it fixed "a number of ... security vulnerabilities" in the two programs; it did not specify how many flaws were fixed, what they were or how attackers might exploit them. Reader is one of the world's most popular pieces of software, since it's both free and the default PDF viewer for many users.

That's not a very difficult attack scenario. It's not as if you have to compile code. And it's going to work on any processor, and on almost any machine." Even though Adobe disclosed some information about the bugs it fixed in February, the bulletin was still terse. It did not spell out possible attack vectors or even rate the bugs. "These vulnerabilities ...
