Adobe fixes bug in update tool Flash and Reader

Category: Adobe , Security

Adobe released on Wednesday (24/2) a fix for a vulnerability in critical Download Manager Windows utility used to download the two most popular products of the company, Adobe Reader and Flash Player.

Failure "potentially allows attackers to download and install unauthorized software on the users system," he acknowledged in an Adobe security bulletin.

The Israeli security researcher Aviv Raff disclosed the vulnerability last week when he said that attackers could use the Download Manager to install any executable file, including attack code.

"If you go to the Adobe website to install a security update for Flash, you will be exposed to a zero-day attack," said Raff.

The Download Manager is not the update mechanism of Reader and Flash Player - this is Adobe Updater - but who manages the transfer of files from Adobe's website.

Among other things, the manager resume interrupted downloads and queues up multiple files for download. The utility is not an Adobe product, but a modified version of getPlus +, licensed from NOS Microsystems.

Even if the Download Manager is removed from Windows when the system is restarted, Raff said he still represents damage because many machines are switched on for days and weeks before being disconnected.

"Adobe recommends users verify that the vulnerable version of Adobe Download Manager is not installed on their machines," the company said in the bulletin.

The steps that Adobe recommends that made include search the hard drive for a folder "C: \ Program Files \ NOS \" or enter "services.msc" in a Windows command line, then delete the "Helper getPlus' of list.

Users need not tamper with the Reader or Flash Player, Adobe said, as the vulnerability does not affect the programs.

Microsoft confirms existence of the first vulnerability in Windows 7

Category: Security , Windows 7

Microsoft confirmed on Friday (13/11) the existence of a vulnerability in Windows 7 , but said that most users can protect themselves from attacks by blocking two ports on the firewall.

In a security bulletin , Microsoft said that a flaw in Server Message Block (SMB), a protocol made ​​by the company, can be used by hackers to attack machines running Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.

The vulnerability was disclosed by Canadian researcher Laurent Gaffie on Wednesday (11/11). According to Gaffie, exploiting the flaw could reach the point where the system only method of recovery is a manual shutdown of the computer .

Initially, Microsoft said it would investigate the case, but on Friday confirmed the problem. "Microsoft is aware of a code that can be exploited to undermine the functioning of the system," said the representative of the company's security group Dave Forstrom. "The company is not afraid of attacks exploiting the vulnerability at this time."

Forstrom, as Graffie, said the error can be exploited to disable a computer, but the vulnerability does not allow the installation of malicious code on Windows 7.

Both SMBv1 SMBv2 as containing the error. "Windows Vista, Server 2008, XP, Server 2003 and 2000 are not affected," says Forstrom.

Attacks may be directed to any browser, not just Internet Explorer, Microsoft warned. After taking the user to access malicious websites, attackers could crash the victim's computer problem with SMB packets.

Microsoft should release a fix the problem, but did not include in the package is scheduled for December 8 or throws an isolated correction. The company suggests that users block TCP ports 139 and 445 at the firewall. However, this may disable browsers as well as cause other critical issues.
