Adobe Systems Patches 17 Critical Security Holes

On June 29, Adobe Systems plugged 17 critical security holes affecting Adobe Reader and Acrobat including a patch for a zero-day vulnerability that impacted many of their other products, on multiple operating systems such as Windows, Mac and Linux. The new versions of Acrobat and Reader are 8.2.3 and 9.3.3, but Adobe strongly recommends using the version 9.x products.

Russian Spies used Steganography

The FBI arrested 11 suspected Russian spies for passing U.S. information to Russian spy agents using wireless networking and steganography.
