Adobe Acrobat Reader in stand-alone mode is vulnerable to remote code
|
|
|
|
|
execution via heap corruption when loading a specially crafted PDF
|
|
|
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
The browser plugin released with Adobe Acrobat Reader (nppdf.so) does
|
|
|
|
|
not properly handle URLs, and crashes if given a URL that is too long.
|
|
|
|
|
The plugin does not correctly handle JavaScript, and executes
|
|
|
|
|
JavaScript that is given as a GET variable to the URL of a PDF file.
|
|
|
|
|
Lastly, the plugin does not properly handle the FDF, xml, xfdf AJAX
|
|
|
|
|
request parameters following the # character in a URL, allowing for
|
|
|
|
|
multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities.

<impact type="normal">

|

|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
An attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted PDF file
|
|
|
|
|
and execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user running Adobe
|
|
|
|
|
Acrobat Reader. An attacker could also entice a user to browse to a
|
|
|
|
|
specially crafted URL and either crash the Adobe Acrobat Reader browser
|
|
|
|
|
plugin, execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of the user's
|
|
|
|
|
browser, or inject arbitrary HTML or JavaScript into the document being
|
|
|
|
|
viewed by the user. Note that users who have emerged Adobe Acrobat
|
|
|
|
|
Reader with the "nsplugin" USE flag disabled are not vulnerable to
|
|
|
|
|
issues with the Adobe Acrobat Reader browser plugin.
