New PDF Security Vulnerability

Post by steveshank »

Arstechnia reported Saturday (sep 21) a security vulnerability in Adobe Acrobat reader (their latest version) and other viewers (mentioning foxit by name). It seems really significant. here is the link: http://tinyurl.com/3x2rn7

2 questions:

1. Does this vulnerability affect pdf xchange viewer?
2. if so, when will your patch be available?

thanks

Hi,

Until we have access to the PDF itself we cannot advise whether we would or would not be affected by the issue - this will be available apparently once Adobe resolve the issue themselves.
If posting files to this forum - you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded - thank you.

Best regards
