Security News > 2020 > July > Adobe Patches Critical Vulnerabilities in Media Encoder, Download Manager
Adobe has patched over a dozen vulnerabilities in its Creative Cloud, Media Encoder, Genuine Service, ColdFusion and Download Manager products.
In the Windows version of Download Manager, Adobe fixed a critical command injection issue that could lead to arbitrary code execution, the company said in an advisory.
In the Windows and macOS versions of Media Encoder, Adobe resolved two critical out-of-bounds write issues that can lead to arbitrary code execution, and an important-severity out-of-bounds read bug that can result in information disclosure.
Finally, in ColdFusion 2016 and 2018, Adobe patched two important DLL hijacking vulnerabilities that can lead to privilege escalation.
Adobe says it's not aware of any attacks exploiting these vulnerabilities, and based on the priority ratings assigned to the bugs the company does not expect to see them being targeted by malicious actors.
