Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Adobe products, the most severe of which could allow for arbitrary code execution.

  • Adobe Acrobat and Reader are used to view, create, print, and manage PDF files
  • Adobe Commerce is an offering that provides companies with a flexible and scalable end-to-end plate form to manage commerce experiences of their customers
  • Adobe Photoshop is a graphics editor.
  • Adobe After Effects is a digital visual effects, motion graphics, and compositing application.

Successful exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow for arbitrary code execution. Depending on the privileges associated with the user, an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.

SYSTEMS AFFECTED:

  • Photoshop 2021 22.5.6 and earlier versions for Windows and macOS.
  • Photoshop 2022 23.2.2 and earlier versions for Windows and macOS.
  • Adobe After Effects 22.2.1 and earlier versions for Windows and macOS.
  • Adobe After Effects 18.4.5 and earlier versions for Windows and macOS.
  • Adobe Commerce 2.4.3-p1 and earlier versions for Windows and macOS
  • Adobe Commerce 2.3.7-p2 and earlier versions for Windows and macOS
  • Magento Open Source 2.4.3-p1 and earlier versions for Windows and macOS
  • Magento Open Source 2.3.7-p2 and earlier versions for Windows and macOS
  • Adobe DC 22.001.20085 and earlier versions for Windows and macOS
  • Adobe Reader DC 22.001.20085 and earlier versions for Windows and macOS
  • Adobe Acrobat 2020, 20.005.30314 and earlier versions (Windows)
  • Adobe Acrobat 2020, 20.005.30311 and earlier versions (macOS)
  • Adobe Acrobat Reader 2020, 20.005.303.14 and earlier versions (Windows)
  • Adobe Acrobat Reader 2020, 20.005.30311 and earlier versions (macOS)
  • Adobe Acrobat 2017, 17.012.30205 and earlier versions (Windows and macOS)
  • Adobe Acrobat Reader 2017, 17.012.30205 and earlier versions (Windows and macOS)

  • Multiple stack-based buffer overflow vulnerabilities (CVE-2022-27783,CVE-2022-27784)

Successful exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow for arbitrary code execution. Depending on the privileges associated with the user an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user right son the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
We recommend the following actions be taken:

  • Install the updates provided by Adobe immediately after appropriate testing.
  • Run all software as a non-privileged user (one without administrative privileges) to diminish the effects of a successful attack.
  • Remind users not to visit un-trusted websites or follow links provided by unknown or un-trusted sources.
  • Inform and educate users regarding the threats posed by hypertext links contained in emails or attachments especially from un-trusted sources.
  • Apply the Principle of Least Privilege to all systems and services.
