Unit 42 Discovers 13 New Vulnerabilities Across Microsoft and Adobe Products
Summary: Palo Alto Networks' Unit 42 researchers were credited with discovering six new vulnerabilities fixed in Adobe's December APSB19-55 security updates, two rated critical and four important. Seven additional vulnerabilities rated important were addressed by Microsoft's MSRC across its September, October and November 2019 releases, with seven researchers credited for the first time.
Key Takeaway: Thirteen vulnerabilities across two of the most widely deployed software vendors were found by outside researchers before attackers could weaponize them, and the source notes that weaponized exploits for these flaws are what its own Traps and IPS protections are built to stop.
