Adobe Systems continues to patch like mad, after it issued a new critical update that patched 20 bugs in its Shockwave Player.
The vulnerabilities were “identified in Adobe Shockwave Player 11.5.7.609 and earlier versions [running] on Windows and Macintosh systems,” the company said. Almost all of the bugs are memory corruption issues that, if triggered, could allow an attacker to execute code.
According to Adobe, none of the issues are currently being exploited in the wild.
The collection of vulnerabilities also includes some denial-of-service issues.
In an effort to improve security, Adobe recently announced plans to add sandboxing technology to Adobe Reader.
