Heap-based buffer overflow in the JBIG2 filter in Adobe Reader 7 and Acrobat 7 before 7.1.3, Adobe Reader 8 and Acrobat 8 before 8.1.6, and Adobe Reader 9 and Acrobat 9 before 9.1.2 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2009-0510, CVE-2009-0512, CVE-2009-0888, and CVE-2009-0889.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Adobe Reader and Acrobat flaw where opening or processing certain PDF content could corrupt memory and may let an attacker run code on the user’s machine. The strongest concern is legacy desktop exposure, not internet-facing servers. Exposure is most likely where legacy Adobe Reader or Acrobat 7, 8, or 9 remains installed on endpoints, virtual desktops, jump hosts, or old golden images. Modern estates are less likely exposed unless obsolete software persists. Treat as high priority if legacy Adobe clients exist. The vulnerability is old, but the impact is workstation compromise from normal document handling, which can still matter in archives, regulated environments, and unmanaged systems. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Adobe Reader/Acrobat to the fixed versions or a current supported release.; Remove obsolete Adobe Reader/Acrobat 7, 8, and 9 where business need no longer exists.; Review Adobe APSB09-07 and relevant Linux vendor advisories for package-specific fixes..
