Adobe Reader JPEG Uninitialised Memory Vulnerability

Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in Adobe Reader, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user’s system. The vulnerability is caused by an uninitialized memory error in AcroForm.api when processing JPEG image data. This can be exploited to dereference out-of-bounds memory when a specially crafted PDF file is opened. Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code. Version 9.3.2 is affected.
