DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in multiple Adobe products, which
potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a
user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when handling BMP
files. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via a BMP file
having a malformed header.

This may be related to:

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code via a
specially crafted BMP file.

NOTE: Reportedly, the vulnerability can also be exploited when a
malicious storage device (e.g. USB drives, cameras) is being attached
to a vulnerable computer.

The vulnerability is reported in Adobe Photoshop Album Starter
Edition 3.2 and Adobe After Effects CS3. Other versions may also be
affected.

Do not connect untrusted storage devices to the local computer.
