Adobe Acrobat Reader Email Message Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
A remote buffer overflow vulnerability reportedly affects the email message checking functionality in Adobe Acrobat Reader for Unix. This issue is due to a failure of the application to properly validate the length of user-supplied strings prior to copying them into static process buffers. An attacker may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user that activated the vulnerable application. This may facilitate unauthorized access or privilege escalation. It should be noted that this issue only affects Adobe Acrobat Reader for the Unix platform. |
