Adobe on Tuesday will release the patches for the critical authplay.dll vulnerability in Reader and Acrobat. The company already has issued a patch for the same flaw in Flash. The flaw can cause the affected application to crash or enable an attacker to gain control of a vulnerable machine. The patches are being pushed out two weeks ahead of the company s normal quarterly patch schedule because of the severity of the flaw and the fact that there are active attacks against it going on already. The patches will be released for Mac, Unix and Windows on June 29.
