Adobe Reader 5.1 XFDF Buffer Overflow Vulnerability (SEH)
Adobe Reader 5.1 is vulnerable to a buffer overflow vulnerability when processing a specially crafted XFDF file. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code in the context of the user running the vulnerable application. This vulnerability is due to a boundary error when processing the XFDF file. By supplying a specially crafted XFDF file, an attacker can cause a stack-based buffer overflow, which can be exploited to execute arbitrary code.
Mitigation:
Upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader.
