Specially crafted PDF documents could crash acroread or even lead to execution of arbitrary code (CVE-2010-0190, CVE-2010-0191, CVE-2010-0192, CVE-2010-0193 CVE-2010-0194, CVE-2010-0195, CVE-2010-0196, CVE-2010-0197 CVE-2010-0198, CVE-2010-0199, CVE-2010-0201, CVE-2010-0202 CVE-2010-0203, CVE-2010-0204, CVE-2010-1241).

Updated acroread packages that fix several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Extras and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 Supplementary.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having critical security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

Adobe Reader allows users to view and print documents in Portable Document Format (PDF).

This update fixes several vulnerabilities in Adobe Reader. These vulnerabilities are summarized on the Adobe Security Advisory APSB10-09 page listed in the References section. A specially crafted PDF file could cause Adobe Reader to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running Adobe Reader when opened.

All Adobe Reader users should install these updated packages. They contain Adobe Reader version 9.3.2, which is not vulnerable to these issues. All running instances of Adobe Reader must be restarted for the update to take effect.

The version of Adobe Reader installed on the remote host is earlier than 9.3.2 / 8.2.2.  Such versions are reportedly affected by multiple vulnerabilities :
  - A cross-site scripting issue could lead to code     execution. (CVE-2010-0190)

  - A prefix protocol handler vulnerability could lead to     code execution. (CVE-2010-0191)

  - A denial of service vulnerability could potentially lead     to code execution. (CVE-2010-0192)

  - A denial of service vulnerability could potentially lead     to code execution. (CVE-2010-0193)

  - A memory corruption vulnerability could lead to code     execution. (CVE-2010-0194)

  - A font handling vulnerability could lead to code     execution. (CVE-2010-0195)

  - A denial of service vulnerability could potentially lead     lead to code execution. (CVE-2010-0196)

  - A memory corruption vulnerability could lead to code     execution. (CVE-2010-0197)

  - A buffer overflow vulnerability could lead to code     execution. (CVE-2010-0198)

  - A buffer overflow vulnerability could lead to code     execution. (CVE-2010-0199)

  - A memory corruption vulnerability could lead to code     execution. (CVE-2010-0201)

  - A buffer overflow vulnerability could lead to code     execution. (CVE-2010-0202)

  - A buffer overflow vulnerability could lead to code     execution. (CVE-2010-0203)

  - A memory corruption vulnerability could lead to code     execution. (CVE-2010-0204)

  - A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability could lead     to code execution. (CVE-2010-1241)

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201009-05 (Adobe Reader: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in Adobe Reader. For further     information please consult the CVE entries and the Adobe Security     Bulletins referenced below.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker might entice a user to open a specially crafted PDF     file, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the     privileges of the user running the application, or bypass intended     sandbox restrictions, make cross-domain requests, inject arbitrary web     script or HTML, or cause a Denial of Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.
