Apart the priority, which is adobe internal, since it says code execution I'd set to A2

[Comment 4 Agostino Sarubbo 2015-11-11 08:55:15 UTC]

amd64 stable

I haven't verified that the linux version is also affected by that CVE, but its Adobe so ... better be cautious (although it doesn't affect handling anyways)

[Comment 6 Agostino Sarubbo 2015-11-11 09:41:19 UTC]

x86 stable.

Maintainer(s), please cleanup.
Security, please add it to the existing request, or file a new one.
