Adobe warns of new critical holes in Flash, Reader

Hammacher Homepage 300x250“Adobe Systems on Thursday warned of new critical holes in Reader and Flash Player, released a security update for the Flash hole, and said a patch for Reader would come next week,” Elinor Mills reports for CNET.

Updates for the following software are coming on Tuesday, according to Adobe’s prenotification security advisory:
• Reader 9.3 for Windows, Mac, and Unix
• Acrobat 9.3 for Windows and Mac
• Reader 8.2 for Windows and Mac
• Acrobat 8.2 for Windows and Mac

“The Tuesday updates will also address the Flash issue, Adobe said,” Mills reports. “Meanwhile, the company released a security update to fix a hole in Flash Player version 10.0.42.43 (and earlier versions) that could “subvert the domain sandbox and make unauthorized cross-domain requests,” according to a security bulletin.”
