[svg-developers] Adobe SVG Viewer 3.03 for Windows

2005-05-03 Thread Paton J. Lewis
Adobe has just released Adobe SVG Viewer 3.03 for Windows.

Version 3.03 of Adobe SVG Viewer is an update provided by Adobe to
fix a potential secuirty risk on Windows computers. In addition, the 
ActiveX control has been signed in order to allow users to avoid the 
ActiveX security warning introduced with Windows XP Security Pack 2. 

Adobe SVG Viewer 3.03 addresses a potential security risk in the 
ActiveX control whereby a malicious web page could determine whether 
or not a file with a particular name exists on the user's computer. 
However, the contents of the file could not be viewed via this 
vulnerability, and directory listings could not be obtained.

Adobe recommends that users of Adobe SVG Viewer 3.02 or earlier 
upgrade to Adobe SVG Viewer 3.03. It is available for download here:

  Does anyone else agree that this is a strong
indication that post-merger Macromedia/Adobe is not
abandoning SVG?  Is this a public gesture from Adobe
to make people think just that?

I personally think there's nothing to read between the lines here.  
There was a security issues, Adobe fixed it. Now, Adobe making SVG  
Tiny one of the few new big features in the Creative Suite might be  
such an indication. But right now, it's anyone guess what's going to  
happen..
