Adobe Reader and Acrobat 8.1.2 and earlier, and before 7.1.1, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF document that (1) performs unspecified actions on a Collab object that trigger memory corruption, related to a GetCosObj method; or (2) contains a malformed PDF object that triggers memory corruption during parsing.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Adobe Reader and Acrobat flaw where a malicious PDF could cause memory corruption and run attacker-controlled code. Business risk exists mainly where legacy Adobe Reader or Acrobat versions remain installed and users can open untrusted PDFs. Exposure is most likely on unmanaged endpoints, legacy systems, kiosks, or archived application images still running affected Adobe Reader or Acrobat versions. Current supported Adobe installations are not established as affected by the provided sources. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item with high impact if found. It should not outrank actively exploited issues unless affected Adobe versions are still present in business environments. Mitigation focus: Identify and remove affected Adobe Reader and Acrobat versions.; Apply Adobe security updates referenced in APSB08-19 and APSB09-04.; Replace unsupported legacy Adobe installations with supported versions..
