Adobe Critical Code-Execution Flaws Plague Windows Users

[silversurfer]

Adobe has issued patches for a slew of critical security vulnerabilities, which, if exploited, could allow for arbitrary code execution on vulnerable Windows systems.
 
Affected products include Adobe’s Framemaker document processor, designed for writing and editing large or complex documents; Adobe’s  Connect software used for remote web conferencing; and the Adobe Creative Cloud software suite for video editing.
 
“Adobe is not aware of any exploits in the wild for any of the issues addressed in these updates,” according to an Adobe spokesperson.
 
While these vulnerabilities are classified as critical-severity flaws, it’s important to note that they were given “priority 3” ratings by Adobe. This means that the update “resolves vulnerabilities in a product that has historically not been a target for attackers,” and that administrators are urged to “install the update at their discretion.”
