    descriptionUpdated acroread packages that fix various security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 Extras, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Extras, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 Supplementary. This update has been rated as having critical security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. Adobe Reader allows users to view and print documents in Portable Document Format (PDF). Several input validation flaws were discovered in Adobe Reader. A malicious PDF file could cause Adobe Reader to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running Adobe Reader. (CVE-2008-2549, CVE-2008-2992, CVE-2008-4812, CVE-2008-4813, CVE-2008-4814, CVE-2008-4817) The Adobe Reader binary had an insecure relative RPATH (runtime library search path) set in the ELF (Executable and Linking Format) header. A local attacker able to convince another user to run Adobe Reader in an attacker-controlled directory could run arbitrary code with the privileges of the victim. (CVE-2008-4815) All acroread users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, that contain Adobe Reader version 8.1.3, and are not vulnerable to these issues.

descriptionBUGTRAQ ID: 32100 CVE ID：CVE-2008-4812 CVE-2008-4813 CVE-2008-4814 CVE-2008-4815 Adobe Acrobat和Reader是PDF文件格式处理程序。 Adobe Acrobat和Reader存在多个安全问题，远程攻击者可以利用漏洞执行任意代码或提升特权等攻击。 -当处理包含在PDF文档中的恶意JavaScript时存在缺陷，当建立Collab对象并在之上执行特定序列操作时，存在内存破坏可导致任意代码执行。 -当解析文件中定义的PDF对象时存在缺陷，当特定对象形成为畸形时，会触发小内存破坏现象而导致以其他用户上下文执行任意代码。 -负责解析Type 1字体的代码存在缺陷，在分配内存区域后，没有执行任何边界检查，后续对这个内存的访问可导致任意内存修改，结果导致任意代码执行。 另外JavaScript方法存在输入验证问题，可导致任意代码执行(CVE-2008-4814)。 基于unix下的应用程序存在特权提升问题(CVE-2008-4815)。 Windows平台下Adobe Reader使用的下载管理器存在问题可导致下载进程解析后用户Internet安全选项被改变。 Adobe Acrobat Standard 8.1.2 Adobe Acrobat Standard 8.1.1 Adobe Acrobat Standard 8.1 Adobe Acrobat Standard 8.0 Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.1.2 Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.1.1 Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.1.2 Security Updat Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.1 Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.0 Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.1.2 Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.1.1 Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.1.2 Security Updat Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.1 Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.0 Adobe Acrobat 3D 8.1.2 可参考如下安全公告获得补丁信息： <a href=http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb08-19.html target=_blank>http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb08-19.html</a>
