Buffer overflow in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 9.x before 9.5.3, 10.x before 10.1.5, and 11.x before 11.0.1 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2013-0606, CVE-2013-0612, CVE-2013-0615, and CVE-2013-0621.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a legacy Adobe Reader and Acrobat memory corruption issue that could let an attacker run code on a user’s machine. The practical business risk is mainly from endpoints still running old Adobe Reader/Acrobat versions or old Linux packages that included Adobe Reader. Exposure is most likely on unmanaged or legacy workstations with Adobe Reader/Acrobat 9.x before 9.5.3, 10.x before 10.1.5, or 11.x before 11.0.1. SUSE, openSUSE, Red Hat, and Gentoo advisories indicate distribution-packaged exposure also mattered in 2013. Prioritize remediation if any legacy Adobe Reader or Acrobat installations remain. The vulnerability is old, but arbitrary code execution in document-reading software creates meaningful endpoint compromise risk when outdated versions persist. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Adobe Reader/Acrobat to the fixed versions or a current supported release.; Remove legacy Adobe Reader/Acrobat where business use no longer requires it.; Check Adobe APSB13-02 and applicable Linux vendor advisories for package-specific guidance..
