Adobe fixes come Tuesday

Adobe's first-ever quarterly patch update is planned for Tuesday. The company announced Thursday that it expects to issue patches then for its Reader and Acrobat versions 7, 8 and 9. The move to scheduled updates comes in response to criticism Adobe received earlier this year when it took several months to fix a major zero-day PDF vulnerability in its software. Tuesday's release — and each one after — will coincide with Microsoft's monthly security update. — DK
