Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 Vulnerability Research November 2017 Disclosures - Adobe
Summary: Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 researchers discovered seven vulnerabilities that Adobe's Product Security Incident Response Team addressed in its November 2017 security update release. Palo Alto Networks states that customers deploying its Next-Generation Security Platform are protected from such zero-day vulnerabilities, with Traps preventing weaponized exploits and threat prevention capabilities including application control, IPS, and WildFire providing automatic updates against previously unknown threats.
What's compelling: Seven vulnerabilities reached a vendor patch release before defenders had public detail, and the disclosure notes attackers weaponize such flaws into exploits - the gap between a researcher finding them and your estate applying the update is the exposure window.
