Looks like Adobe is under the vulnerability scan again but no it is not Flash… it’s Acrobat. 41 vulnerabilities have been found 17 of them seem capable to take control of the effected system. These vulnerabilities created a trend micro zero-day notice
The vulnerabilities impact the Windows and Mac operating systems. Acrobat DC (continuous) versions 2018.009.20050 and earlier, Acrobat 2017 versions 2017.011.30070 and earlier, Acrobat Reader 2017 versions 2017.011.30070 and earlier, and Acrobat DC (Classic Track) versions 2015.006.30394 and earlier are all affected.
It is important to update and patch as it is believed the Flash exploit is being used in the wild by North Korean cyberattackers to compromise systems. It would be fair going forward to assume that malicious attackers would also add this vulnerability regardless of their world location or government.
Hi Brock
Thanks for sharing the information to us. Adobe is widely used by users. It is important to report the vulnerabilities to users and suppliers. Being able to take control of the effected system is a big problem for users. In addition, if the impacts spread widely, that will impact the reputation of the company. Therefore, it is important to find the vulnerabilities earlier and fix them earlier.
