Critical Patches Released for Adobe Applications

Adobe has released patches that fix at least eight security holes in both its Acrobat and Adobe Reader programs. These flaws could be used by evil doers to take control of vulnerable systems. Versions 8.1.2 and earlier are affected. Adobe has rated these updates as “critical” indicating that the flaws could allow attackers to comptomise an unpatched system without the users knowledge. The Windows update may be found here.
