    Adobe Reader (formerly Adobe Acrobat Reader) is a closed-source PDF
    reader.

  <description>
    <p>
    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Adobe Reader:
    </p>
    <ul>
    <li>
    Alin Rad Pop of Secunia Research reported a heap-based buffer overflow
    when processing PDF files containing a malformed JBIG2 symbol
    dictionary segment (CVE-2009-0193).
    </li>
    <li>
    A buffer overflow related to a non-JavaScript function call and
    possibly an embedded JBIG2 image stream has been reported
    (CVE-2009-0658).
    </li>
    <li>
    Tenable Network Security reported a stack-based buffer overflow that
    can be triggered via a crafted argument to the getIcon() method of a
    Collab object (CVE-2009-0927).
    </li>
    <li>
    Sean Larsson of iDefense Labs reported a heap-based buffer overflow
    when processing a PDF file containing a JBIG2 stream with a size
    inconsistency related to an unspecified table (CVE-2009-0928).
    </li>
    <li>
    Jonathan Brossard of the iViZ Security Research Team reported an
    unspecified vulnerability related to JBIG2 and input validation
    (CVE-2009-1061).
    </li>
    <li>
    Will Dormann of CERT/CC reported a vulnerability lading to memory
    corruption related to JBIG2 (CVE-2009-1062).
    </li>
    </ul> <p>
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted PDF
    document, possibly leading to the execution of arbitrary code with the
    privileges of the user running the application, or a Denial of Service.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All Adobe Reader users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-text/acroread-8.1.4&quot;</code>
  </resolution>
