Race condition in the MoveFileEx call hook feature in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 11.x before 11.0.09 on Windows allows attackers to bypass a sandbox protection mechanism, and consequently write to files in arbitrary locations, via an NTFS junction attack, a similar issue to CVE-2014-0568.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw affected Adobe Reader and Acrobat 11.x on Windows before 11.0.09. It could let an attacker bypass sandbox file-write protections through a race condition, potentially allowing writes to arbitrary file locations. The source bundle does not show active exploitation or a CVSS score. Exposure is limited to Windows systems running Adobe Reader or Acrobat 11.x versions earlier than 11.0.09. Modern or fully updated installations are not identified as affected in the provided sources. Treat this as a legacy software risk with high impact if vulnerable installations remain. The main business action is confirming old Adobe Reader or Acrobat versions are gone or patched, especially on systems handling external PDFs. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected Adobe Reader and Acrobat 11.x installations beyond vulnerable versions.; Review Adobe APSB14-28 for vendor-specific remediation guidance.; Remove unsupported legacy Reader or Acrobat versions from managed Windows endpoints..
