Adobe are releasing
security updates after reports of adobe zero day vulnerabilities being exploited by
hackers.
Adobe security updates, like many company security updates, are released from
time to time. However the reports of a zero day vulnerability have caused
concern recently.
It seems hackers have been trying to exploit the vulnerability during the
"zero day" period whilst Adobe prepare and distribute the security
update to patch the problem.
The Adobe security update is apparently ready and may be accessed from the Adobe
website.
This Adobe zero day exploit, as reported, is potentially problematic as Adobe
products are so widely used across world.
Adobe make many great products, including the popular Adobe reader used by
millions.
Many software products that we use on a daily basis may suffer zero day
security vulnerabilities, not just Adobe.
Hence it is a timely reminder of one of our key tips amongst our Top Security Tips. That is to keep software up
to date.
We recommend a good policy is to keep all your software products up to date,
especially security related patches.
Most products provide some automatic update checks and updates, whilst some can
be updated manually.
We recommend that is you are using Adobe, and that is most users, that you check
for an Adobe security update for you products.
