Plug-in security fix for Photoshop CS5
Maliciously coded GIF files could cause Photoshop to crash, so the team has posted an update. If you open GIFs in Photoshop, please download the update for Mac, Win64, and/or Win32. They recommend making certain that you’re running the most recent version of Photoshop. To check/update, choose Help->Updates inside Photoshop CS5 and apply all of the updates listed under Adobe Photoshop CS5.
Comments
Are earlier versions of CS vulnerable? Thank you.
[As far as I know it’s CS5-specific. –J.]
This update isn’t appearing in the auto-updater.
[Sorry, I should have been clearer in my wording: the update is only on Adobe.com. The text about the updater pertains only to the PS updates that one should run beforehand. –J.]
