Name: CVE-2009-4324 URL: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-4324 Assigned: 20091214 Reference: MISC: http://blogs.adobe.com/psirt/2009/12/newadobereaderandacrobatv.html

Unspecified vulnerability in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 9.2 and earlier has unknown impact and attack vectors, as exploited in the wild in December 2009.

An unconfirmed third-party posting [1] indicates this vulnerability is in the JavaScript processing, so a proposed work-around is to disable JavaScript (Edit -> Preferences -> JavaScript). This has not been official confirmed by Adobe.

Adobe Acrobat and Reader contains an array boundary issue in Universal 3D (U3D) support that could lead to remote code execution.

Adobe Acrobat and Reader contain a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF file that triggers memory corruption.

Adobe Acrobat and Reader contain an input validation issue in a JavaScript method that could potentially lead to remote code execution.

Adobe Acrobat and Reader contains an unespecified vulnerability described as a design flaw which could allow a specially crafted file to be printed silently an arbitrary number of times.

Adobe Reader 6.0 does not properly handle null characters when splitting a filename path into components, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a file with a long extension that is not normally handled by Reader, triggering a buffer overflow.

Buffer overflow in the ActiveX component (pdf.ocx) for Adobe Acrobat 5.0.5 and Acrobat Reader, and possibly other versions, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a URI for a PDF file with a null terminator (%00) followed by a long string.

Buffer overflow in a "core application plug-in" for Adobe Reader 5.1 through 7.0.2 and Acrobat 5.0 through 7.0.2 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors.
