Adobe has discovered a buffer overflow that if successfully exploited
could crash the application with an increased risk of arbitrary code
execution. The vulnerability is in a core Adobe Acrobat and Adobe
Reader application plug-in. If the malicious file is loaded, it could
exploit the buffer overflow. An update is available to mitigate
potential malicious activity. This vulnerability (identifier
CVE-2005-2470) affects the following platforms: Windows, Mac OS, Linux
and Solaris and the following releases: Adobe Reader 5.1, 6.0-6.0.3,
7.0-7.0.2 and Adobe Acrobat 5.0-5.0.5, 6.0-6.0.3, 7.0-7.0.2.

Adobe always recommends that users keep their systems up to date, and
install the latest update of these applications. More information is
available for each product from Adobe at
