TITLE

Adobe Flash ActionScript AVM2 newfunction vulnerability

DESCRIPTION

Unspecified vulnerability in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 9.x before 9.3.3, and 8.x before 8.2.3 on Windows and Mac OS X, allows attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors. Adobe Flash contains a vulnerability in the handling of the ActionScript newfunction instruction, which can allow a remote, unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code. Adobe Acrobat and Reader are prone to multiple remote vulnerabilities. Attackers can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code or cause denial-of-service conditions. Adobe Reader and Acrobat versions prior to and including 9.3.2 and 8.2.2 are affected. This BID is being retired. The following individual records exist to better document the issues: 41230 Adobe Acrobat and Reader CVE-2010-1295 Remote Memory Corruption Vulnerability 41231 Adobe Acrobat and Reader CoolType Typography Engine Remote Denial of Service Vulnerability 41232 Adobe Acrobat andReader CVE-2010-1285 Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 41234 Adobe Acrobat and Reader CVE-2010-2202 Remote Memory Corruption Vulnerability 41235 Adobe Acrobat and Reader CVE-2010-2203 Remote Memory Corruption Vulnerability 41236 Adobe Acrobat and Reader CVE-2010-2168 Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 41237 Adobe Acrobat and Reader CVE-2010-2201 Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 41238 Adobe Acrobat and Reader CVE-2010-2205 Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 41239 Adobe Acrobat and Reader CVE-2010-2207 Remote Memory Corruption Vulnerability 41240 Adobe Acrobat and Reader CVE-2010-2209 Remote Memory Corruption Vulnerability 41241 Adobe Acrobat and Reader CVE-2010-2206 Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 41242 Adobe Acrobat and Reader CVE-2010-2210 Remote Memory Corruption Vulnerability 41243 Adobe Acrobat and Reader CVE-2010-2211 Remote Memory Corruption Vulnerability 41244 Adobe Acrobat and Reader CVE-2010-2208 Remote Code Execution Vulnerability 41245 Adobe Acrobat and Reader CVE-2010-2212 Remote Memory Corruption Vulnerability. Attackers can exploit this issue to crash the affected application, denying service to legitimate users. Due to the nature of this issue, arbitrary code-execution may be possible; however this has not been confirmed. Adobe Reader software is the global standard for electronic document sharing. It is the only PDF file viewer that can open and interact with all PDF documents. The issue is triggered when the reader tries to initialize the CoolType Typography Engine (cooltype.dll). This vulnerability also affects and crashes major browsers like: Mozilla Firefox, Opera and Apple Safari. Google Chrome &amp; IE does not crash.

Overview According to Adobe, there is a vulnerability in Adobe Flash. This vulnerability affects Flash Player, Reader, Acrobat, and possibly other products that support Flash. I. It may also affect other products that independently support Flash, such as Photoshop, Photoshop Lightroom, Freehand MX, and Fireworks. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by convincing a user to open specially crafted Flash content. Flash content is commonly hosted on a web page, but it can also be embedded in PDF and other documents or provided as a stand-alone file. II. III. Solution Update Adobe Security Advisory APSA10-01 suggests updating to the release candidate of Flash Player 10.1. Disable Flash in your web browser Uninstall Flash or restrict which sites are allowed to run Flash. To the extent possible, only run trusted Flash content on trusted domains. For more information, see Securing Your Web Browser. Disable Flash in Adobe Reader and Acrobat Disabling Flash in Adobe Reader will mitigate attacks that rely on Flash content embedded in a PDF file. Disabling 3D & Multimedia support does not directly address the vulnerability, but it does provide additional mitigation and results in a more user-friendly error message instead of a crash. To disable Flash and 3D & Multimedia support in Adobe Reader 9, delete, rename, or remove access to these files: Microsoft Windows "%ProgramFiles%\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\authplay.dll" "%ProgramFiles%\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\rt3d.dll" Apple Mac OS X "/Applications/Adobe Reader 9/Adobe Reader.app/Contents/Frameworks/AuthPlayLib.bundle" "/Applications/Adobe Reader 9/Adobe Reader.app/Contents/Frameworks/Adobe3D.framework" GNU/Linux (locations may vary among distributions) "/opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/lib/libauthplay.so" "/opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/lib/librt3d.so" File locations may be different for Adobe Acrobat or other Adobe products that include Flash and 3D & Multimedia support. Disabling these plugins will reduce functionality and will not protect against Flash content hosted on websites. Depending on the update schedule for products other than Flash Player, consider leaving Flash and 3D & Multimedia support disabled unless they are absolutely required. Prevent Internet Explorer from automatically opening PDF documents The installer for Adobe Reader and Acrobat configures Internet Explorer to automatically open PDF files without any user interaction. This behavior can be reverted to a safer option that prompts the user by importing the following as a .REG file: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AcroExch.Document.7] "EditFlags"=hex:00,00,00,00 Disable the display of PDF documents in the web browser Preventing PDF documents from opening inside a web browser will partially mitigate this vulnerability. If this workaround is applied, it may also mitigate future vulnerabilities. To prevent PDF documents from automatically being opened in a web browser, do the following: 1. 2. Open the Edit menu. 3. Choose the Preferences option. 4. Choose the Internet section. 5. Uncheck the "Display PDF in browser" checkbox. Disable JavaScript in Adobe Reader and Acrobat Disabling JavaScript provides some additional protection against attacks. Acrobat JavaScript can be disabled using the Preferences menu (Edit -> Preferences -> JavaScript; uncheck Enable Acrobat JavaScript). Enable DEP in Microsoft Windows Consider enabling Data Execution Prevention (DEP) in supported versions of Windows. DEP should not be treated as a complete workaround, but it can mitigate the execution of attacker-supplied code in some cases. Microsoft has published detailed technical information about DEP in Security Research & Defense blog posts "Understanding DEP as a mitigation technology" part 1 and part 2. Use of DEP should be considered in conjunction with the application of patches or other mitigations described in this document. Do not access PDF documents from untrusted sources Do not open unfamiliar or unexpected PDF documents, particularly those hosted on websites or delivered as email attachments.
