Adobe Flaws Can Expose Data Via PDF Files

Via CBC.ca.

A flaw in Adobe Inc.'s Reader and Acrobat software could give an attacker access to information on a targeted computer, a Danish security company says.

The vulnerability in the software used to read and create Portable Document Format (PDF) files stems from a problem in the way it handles hypertext links to files from within a PDF document, Secunia ApS said in an advisory on Tuesday.
