Heap-based buffer overflow in the custom heap management system in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 9.x before 9.3.2, and 8.x before 8.2.2 on Windows and Mac OS X, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted PDF document, aka FG-VD-10-005.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
