Security Bulletin for Photoshop, Adobe Recommended to Buy CS6 To Addresses Those Vulnerabilities

It seems Adobe remained very busy while issuing security updates in their products. Few days ago Adobe closed a newly found Zero-day hole in its popular Flash Player program. Now it comes the time for Photoshop, Adobe released a security upgrade for Adobe Photoshop CS5 and earlier for Windows and Macintosh. 

This upgrade addresses vulnerabilities that could allow an attacker who successfully exploits these vulnerabilities to take control of the affected system. In the case of the Windows and Mac versions of Adobe Photoshop, a vulnerability exists in version CS5 and earlier that could be exploited by a malicious attacker who tricks you into opening a boobytrapped .TIF file in order to take control of your computer.

Adobe has released Adobe Photoshop CS6 (paid upgrade), which addresses these vulnerabilities. This upgrade resolves a use-after-free TIFF vulnerability that could lead to code execution (CVE-2012-2027, Bugtraq ID 52634, which references: www.securityfocus.com/bid/52634/).
