|
|
A buffer overflow has been discovered in the email processing of
|
|
Adobe Acrobat Reader. This flaw exists in the mailListIsPdf function,
|
|
which checks if the input file is an email message containing a PDF
|
|
file.
|

|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could send the victim a specially-crafted email
|
|
and PDF attachment, which would trigger the buffer overflow and
|
|
possibly lead to the execution of arbitrary code with the permissions
|
|
of the user running Adobe Acrobat Reader.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All Adobe Acrobat Reader users should upgrade to the latest
|
|
version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-text/acroread-5.10"</code>
