Security experts have urged users to be cautious following the discovery of a new zero-day attack on Adobe's Reader and Acrobat platforms



From V3:

"Adobe is aware of a report of a vulnerability in Adobe Reader and Acrobat XI (11.0.1) and earlier versions being exploited in the wild," the PSIRT said.

"We are currently investigating this report and assessing the risk to our customers."

Word of the attacks comes just hours after Adobe posted a security update to address flaws in its Flash and Shockwave platforms. The company gave no word on when a possible Reader update would be released.
