Adobe Warns of Security Flaw in Reader

isusmiley writes "Adobe Systems Inc. issued a warning on its Web site Tuesday saying that the flaw affects only the Adobe Reader versions 5.0.9, 5.0.10, which were written for the Unix computer operating system. Adobe has since posted a fix for the vulnerability on its site, and a spokesman said Wednesday he was unaware of any security breaches resulting from the software flaw, which was discovered by the security defense firm IDefense, headquartered in Reston, Va."

    Current versions for Linux and Solaris seem to be OK, anyway. It's the current AIX and HP-UX versions that are bad.

    So much for 2005 being The Year Of AIX On The Desktop!
