Descriptions
Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the image-parsing library in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 8.x before 8.3.1, 9.x before 9.4.6, and 10.x before 10.1.1 allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.
Múltiples desbordamientos de búfer basados en pila en la librería image-parsing en Adobe Reader y Acrobat v8.x antes de v8.3.1, v9.x antes de v9.4.6, y v10.x antes de v10.1.1, permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código de su elección a través de vectores desconocidos.
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Adobe Reader. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the Adobe Image parsing library. When Adobe Reader tries to parse an malformed .BMP image containing Run Length Encoded data it fails to perform sufficient boundary checks on the data. The effect can be a heap buffer overflow resulting in remote code execution under the context of the current user.
