Multiple Adobe products, including (1) Photoshop CS2, (2) Illustrator CS2, and (3) Adobe Help Center, install a large number of .EXE and .DLL files with write-access permission for the Everyone group, which allows local users to gain privileges via Trojan horse programs.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Older Adobe desktop software installed many program files with permissions that let any local user write to them. On shared or multi-user Windows systems, that could let a low-privileged user tamper with Adobe files and gain higher privileges when trusted users or services run them. Exposure is most likely on legacy Windows endpoints or shared workstations that still have Photoshop CS2, Illustrator CS2, or Adobe Help Center installed with original permissions. Modern Adobe products are not identified in the supplied sources. Treat as a legacy hygiene issue with real privilege-escalation impact where the software remains installed. It is not presented as actively exploited in the supplied evidence, but unsupported Adobe CS2-era software should be removed or tightly controlled. Mitigation focus: Inventory systems for Photoshop CS2, Illustrator CS2, and Adobe Help Center.; Check Adobe and CERT guidance for vendor-supported remediation details.; Remove unsupported legacy Adobe software where business use no longer exists..
