Adobe Reader Vulnerability – GUARD YOUR PDFs!

February 24, 2009/0 Comments/in IT Blog, Uncategorized /by i-Tech Support

hello again all!

In a slight turn from my last post about the joys of valentine’s day shopping, I must alert you all to a new vulnerability that was released from Adobe regarding their reader product.

From the Agency for Enterprise Information Technology:

Overview:
Within the last few hours, AEIT has been made aware of a 0-day exploit in Adobe Acrobat/Reader. This vulnerability is in the wild and currently being exploited. It allows code execution and there is no patch provided by Adobe. A workaround is currently available. All versions of Adobe Acrobat/Reader 9 and earlier are affected.

Work Around:
Disabling JavaScript:
Edit -> Preferences -> JavaScript and uncheck Enable Acrobat JavaScript

Systems Affected:
Adobe Reader 9 and earlier version
Adobe Acrobat Standard, Pro, and Pro Extended 9 and earlier versions
(Read: All Versions of Adobe Acrobat/Reader 9 and earlier)

Of course, those with up-to-date virus/spyware definitions will be in much better shape than those without, but please be careful nevertheless!

If you have any further questions, comments, concerns or need any other expertise for your IT needs, you know who to call! ME! 407-215-1250 / jason@i-techsupport.com

Peace, Love and throughput…
