Adobe Reader, Acrobat security issues -- again!

In respect to the latest in a series of security vulnerabilities with Adobe Reader and Adobe Flash, Adobe says, "We are in the process of fixing the issue, and expect to make available product updates for the relevant supported Adobe Reader and Acrobat versions and platforms by May 12th, 2009."

"SANS NewsBites" newsletter editors comment that users of Adobe Reader and Acrobat may want to consider less-exploited alternatives. Adobe Reader keeps bloating in size and Acrobat seems way over-priced, so perhaps it is time to start looking elsewhere.
