Security updates available for Adobe Reader and Acrobat - September 13, 2011

Quote
Critical vulnerabilities have been identified in Adobe Reader X (10.1) and earlier versions for Windows and Macintosh, Adobe Reader 9.4.2 and earlier versions for UNIX, and Adobe Acrobat X (10.1) and earlier versions for Windows and Macintosh. These vulnerabilities could cause the application to crash and potentially allow an attacker to take control of the affected system.

Adobe recommends users of Adobe Reader X (10.1) and earlier versions for Windows and Macintosh update to Adobe Reader X (10.1.1). For users of Adobe Reader 9.4.5 and earlier versions for Windows and Macintosh, who cannot update to Adobe Reader X (10.1.1), Adobe has made available updates, Adobe Reader 9.4.6 and Adobe Reader 8.3.1. Adobe recommends users of Adobe Acrobat X (10.1) for Windows and Macintosh update to Adobe Acrobat X (10.1.1). Adobe recommends users of Adobe Acrobat 9.4.5 and earlier versions for Windows and Macintosh update to Adobe Acrobat 9.4.6, and users of Adobe Acrobat 8.3 and earlier versions for Windows and Macintosh update to Adobe Acrobat 8.3.1. Adobe Reader 9.4.6 for UNIX is currently scheduled to be released on November 7, 2011.
