1. Impact

    Multiple security vulnerabilities in the Adobe Reader may allow remote
    unprivileged users to execute arbitrary code. This includes a
    cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability that may allow a remote
    unprivileged user to inject arbitrary JavaScript into a browser
    session.

    Note: Adobe Reader is the free viewing companion to Adobe Acrobat.
    Adobe Reader allows you to view, navigate, and print Portable Document
    Format (PDF) files.

    These issues have been described in the following documents:
      * APSB07-01 at:
        http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb07-01.html

      * CVE-2006-5857 at:

      * CVE-2007-0046 at:
        http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-0046

2. Contributing Factors

    This issue can occur in the following releases:

    SPARC Platform
      * Solaris 10

    Note 1: Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 are not affected by this issue.
    Solaris 10 x86 platform is also not affected.

    Note 2: All versions of Adobe Reader and Acrobat up to and including
    version 7.0.8 are affected by these issues. Solaris 10 ships Acrobat
    Reader 7.0.

    To determine the version of Adobe Reader installed on the system the
    following command can be run:
     $ /usr/bin/acroread -version
     7.0.1


3. Symptoms

    There are no predictable symptoms that would indicate the described
    issues have been exploited.

4. Relief/Workaround

    To work around the described issues, do not load PDF files from
    untrusted sources.

    To work around the cross site scripting vulnerability, disable
    JavaScript in the browser application. This can done in Mozilla as
    follows:
     1. Open the Preferences dialog from the Edit menu
     2. Select the Advanced tree
     3. Select the Scripts & Plug-ins leaf
     4. Uncheck the Navigator check box
     5. Click the OK button

5. Resolution

    A final resolution is pending completion.
