Peaches Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 8 January 2010, 15:20Adobe patches holes in Illustrator Adobe has released an update to close two critical security holes in Illustrator CS3 and CS4. Both the Windows and the Mac OS X versions are affected. One of the holes was already discovered in early December and is based on a buffer overflow that can be triggered when processing specially crafted "Encapsulated Postscript" (eps) files. An existing exploit for this vulnerability binds a shell to network port 4444 on vulnerable computers, allowing attackers to remotely access a Windows computer. The second hole is also based on a buffer overflow.
