Adobe Reader 9 new exploit in the wild
![]() According to Adobe's advisory a fix is scheduled for March 11th, 2009. If you don't want to wait that long, I suggest you go for one of the many (free) alternatives (like Foxit Reader or SumatraPDF) which are not affected. Quote:

According to the "explorers" of this vulnerability it suffices to deactivate JavaScript in your Adobe Reader (somewhere hidden in the program's settings).
@doctorow: Shouldn't it say "Adobe advisory"? It's not Amazon's fault this time ![]() |
