Because IE7 and Windows XP systems may have a worm vulnerability, Adobe upgraded its Adobe Reader Program to version 8.1.1 yesterday. However, unfortunately, after Adobe fixed the vulnerability for several hours, Symantec immediately announced that it had discovered a new vulnerability in Adobe Reader. It is estimated that Adobe's hard-working staff will say angrily to Symantec after hearing the news: Why don't you say it earlier?
Symantec warned users: "This new vulnerability exploits a vulnerability that has not been updated in Windows and is attacked by email ". The malicious code is attached to the spam and the file name of your_bill.htm or invoice.pdf is used.
Adobe updated its version 8.1.1 yesterday to address the vulnerabilities that may occur in IE7 and Windows XP environments. However, this latest malicious attack was not found before. When a malicious PDF file is executed, a pidief. a Trojan is released to attack the Windows Firewall, and a malware control computer is downloaded. The second attack since then is a special download device that can download files from a remote server and destroy the computer system of individual users with the help of attackers.
Although these problems are not the responsibility of Adobe, Microsoft should be responsible for these problems, Adobe is still responsible for updating their Adobe Reader to solve the problem, but what are the latest problems discovered by Symantec? Is Microsoft still not responsible? Or is it even harder for Adobe staff?
