eEye Digital Security has flagged a high-severity flaw in an unnamed Adobe product and warned that millions of Windows users are at risk of remote code execution attacks. A bland notice on the company's upcoming advisories page said the flaw was reported and confirmed by Adobe. I pinged eEye's Marc Maiffret for some additional details but he declined, saying he can't even provide the name of the vulnerable product. |
Affected OS versions include Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows Server 2003.
Adobe has been fairly consistent about patching security flaws in a timely manner, so users should be getting a fix soon. Strangely, however, I haven't seen the company address several PDF backdoors discovered by a British hacker back in September.
