CVE-2015-8458: Heap-based buffer overflow in AGM.dll in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 10.x before 10.1.16 and 11.x before 11.0....

Heap-based buffer overflow in AGM.dll in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 10.x before 10.1.16 and 11.x before 11.0.13, Acrobat and Acrobat Reader DC Classic before 2015.006.30094, and Acrobat and Acrobat Reader DC Continuous before 2015.009.20069 on Windows and OS X allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via a multiple-layer PDF document, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-6696 and CVE-2015-6698.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an older Adobe Reader and Acrobat flaw that could let an attacker run code if a vulnerable user opens a specially crafted multi-layer PDF. Business risk is concentrated in endpoints still running the affected 10.x, 11.x, DC Classic, or DC Continuous versions. Exposure is most likely on unmanaged or legacy desktops where Adobe Reader or Acrobat was not updated after Adobe APSB15-24. Modern managed fleets should be lower risk if patch baselines remove the affected versions. Treat this as a high-priority legacy exposure issue, not a current emergency unless vulnerable Adobe versions remain in use. The business concern is user-driven code execution from PDF documents on unpatched endpoints. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Adobe Reader and Acrobat to the fixed versions or later.; Prioritize Windows and OS X endpoints with PDF handling workflows.; Review Adobe APSB15-24 for vendor-specific update guidance..
