Buffer overflow in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 8.x before 8.3, 9.x before 9.4.5, and 10.x before 10.1 on Windows and Mac OS X allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-2094 and CVE-2011-2097.
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.
