Unit 42 Vulnerability Research February 2018 Disclosures - Adobe
Summary: Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 researchers disclosed a vulnerability that Adobe's Product Security Incident Response Team addressed in its February 2018 security update release. Unit 42 states that Palo Alto Networks customers deploying its Next-Generation Security Platform are protected from such zero-day vulnerabilities, with Traps exploit prevention blocking weaponized exploits.
Bottom line: The disclosure confirms the vulnerability reached a vendor patch release, meaning exploit code existed in the wild before defenders could apply it - the gap between a zero-day and a shipped update is where enterprise networks are exposed.
