iDefense Security Advisory 02.23.10 - Remote exploitation of an input validation vulnerability in NOS Microsystems Ltd.'s getPlus Download Manager, as used by Adobe and potentially other vendors, could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the current user. The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of the domain used to download and execute applications from. The vulnerable code always assumes that the domain being validated is a subdomain, which can lead to a logic error when comparing the valid domain and the requested domain. iDefense has confirmed the existence of this vulnerability in getPlus version 1.5.2.35 as distributed by Adobe. The Adobe Download Manager on Windows (prior to February 23, 2010) has been confirmed vulnerable by Adobe.
