Adobe patches 23 vulnerabilities in Reader and Acrobat

Filed under: Security

After moving quickly to plug a critical vulnerability last month, Adobe has followed up by patching another 23 holes in both Reader and Acrobat.

These vulnerabilities affect all versions of Adobe Reader and Acrobat for Windows and Mac, so you need to update your software immediately. Users of Acrobat and Reader 9 will have to update to version 9.4, while users of Acrobat 8 should update to version 8.2.5.

Both Reader and Acrobat have built-in updating mechanisms -- but if you have that disabled, or if you're a network administrator, the latest versions can be found on the Adobe security bulletin.
