Yesterday I got a new type of “Stupid Worm” hidding in background as xmss.exe. It copied itself on Local disk and Windows Directory (%Windir%). Terminated “Windows Task Manager”, Windows Command Prompt (DOS-Prompt) & crashed System Internal Process Explorer (procxp.exe).
According to McAfee, this worm is known as W32/Autorun.worm.g.
It can propagate itself over removable media and network drives and cause execution of malicious code via an autorun.inf file.

A JavaScript Buffer Overflow in Adobe Acrobat, Acrobat 3D & Reader allowed remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. The code will run with the privileges of the target user opening the PDF document.
Excerpt from iDefense Public Advisory;
Adobe Reader and Acrobat implement a version of JavaScript in the EScript.api plug-in which is based on the reference implementation used in Mozilla products. One of the methods exposed allows direct control over low level features of the object, which in turn allows execution of arbitrary code.
