|
|
A buffer overflow has been reported within a core application
|
|
plug-in, which is part of Adobe Reader.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
An attacker may create a specially-crafted PDF file, enticing a
|
|
user to open it. This could trigger a buffer overflow as the file is
|
|
being loaded, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.
|
|

|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-text/acroread-7.0.1.1"</code>
