Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information or compromise a user's system.

1) A format string error within the eBook plug-in when parsing ".etd" files can be exploited to execute arbitrary code via a specially crafted eBook containing format specifiers in the "title" and "baseurl" fields.

2) Multiple vulnerabilities in libpng have been acknowledged, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

For more information:

3) An error within the handling of Flash files embedded in PDF documents can be exploited to read the content of files on a user's system.

For more information:
SA12809

The vulnerabilities have been reported in versions 6.0.0 through 6.0.2.

Solution:
Update to version 6.0.3.
