Adobe has released a security update for Photoshop CS4 (not the currently shipping version), to correct what the company calls critical vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities “could allow an attacker who successfully exploits these vulnerabilities to take control of the affected system. A malicious .ASL, .ABR, or .GRD file must be opened in Photoshop CS4 by the user for an attacker to be able to exploit these vulnerabilities.”

The Photoshop 11.0.2 update corrects these flaws, and also provides other fixes for the program. It can be downloaded here.
