Adobe fixes flaw in Adobe Acrobat

Software giant Adobe had launched the patch for the recently discovered security flaw in their acrobat software application.

The company added that the flaw affected Acrobat Standard, Professional, and Elements in versions 7.08 and older.

Adobe further confirmed that the recently launched version 8.0 was not affected by this flaw and the users are not required to download any patch.

The company also added that the Acrobat 3D was also at risk but gave few details on the versions affected by the flaw.

This flaw was related to a technique known as cross-site scripting which allowed hackers to mix malicious JavaScript with a link to a PDF file on a website.

Users can update their software applications to the latest updated versions by using the inbuilt update feature in the products.
