A Security Advisory (APSA10-05) has been posted in regards to a new Flash Player, Adobe Reader and Acrobat issue (CVE-2010-3654). A critical vulnerability exists in Adobe Flash Player 10.1.85.3 and earlier versions for Windows, Macintosh, Linux and Solaris operating systems; Adobe Flash Player 10.1.95.2 and earlier versions for Android; and the authplay.dll component that ships with Adobe Reader 9.4 and earlier 9.x versions for Windows, Macintosh and UNIX operating systems, and Adobe Acrobat 9.4 and earlier 9.x versions for Windows and Macintosh operating systems. This vulnerability (CVE-2010-3654) could cause a crash and potentially allow an attacker to take control of the affected system. There are reports that this vulnerability is being actively exploited in the wild against Adobe Reader and Acrobat 9.x. Adobe is not currently aware of attacks targeting Adobe Flash Player.
Adobe Reader and Acrobat 8.x, and Adobe Reader for Android are confirmed not vulnerable. Mitigations for Adobe Reader and Acrobat 9.x are included in the Security Advisory.
We are in the process of finalizing a fix for the issue and expect to provide an update for Adobe Flash Player 10.x for Windows, Macintosh, Linux and Android by November 9, 2010. We expect to make available an update for Adobe Reader and Acrobat 9.4 and earlier 9.x versions during the week of November 15, 2010.
We will continue to provide updates on this issue via the Security Advisory section of the Adobe website as well as the Adobe PSIRT blog.
