Trend Micro threat analysts were alerted to the discovery of a zero-day exploit that affects Adobe Reader and Acrobat 9.1.3 and earlier versions (CVE-2009-3459). Trend Micro detects this as TROJ_PIDIEF.UO. This .PDF file contains an embedded Javascript, which Trend Micro detects as JS_AGENTT.DT. This Javascript is used to execute arbitrary codes in a technique known as heap spraying. In addition, there is a possibility that a future variant may be created that does not use Javascript to exploit the said vulnerability.
