DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Adobe Reader and Adobe
Acrobat, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a
user's system.

1) A unspecified error can be exploited to corrupt memory.

2) A unspecified error can be exploited to corrupt heap memory.

3) A signedness error in rt3d.dll when parsing certain BMP image
content can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a
specially crafted BMP image embedded in a PDF document.

4) A unspecified error can be exploited to corrupt memory.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities may allow execution of
arbitrary code.

The vulnerabilities are reported in the following products:
* Adobe Reader X (10.1.1) and earlier 10.x versions for Windows and
Macintosh
* Adobe Reader 9.4.7 and earlier 9.x versions for Windows
