So adobe is one of the 20 companies. Others?

So, any guess if updating from Adobe to fix "PDF zero-day bugs" ( http://www.macworld.com/article/145670/adobe_patches.html ) remove or install what ever trojan/malware that may or may not have entered Adbode's Corporate Network (and may or may not have been further distributed)?

I hope Adobe et. al. have deployed some log archival & query (SIEM) solution like SenSage (http://www.sensage.com). If so they'll have records needed for forensic reconstruction of the attack, and find a way to remedy their problem. If not, they're flying blind (or at least near-sighted). It will be interesting to see whether this is an inside job.

Someone managing to slip malicious code into the Flash Player or Acrobat Reader installers is pretty much a worst-case scenario; the possibility of someone working for the Chinese government doing so is even worse. I don't think that's actually likely, but the idea that someone might have been trying is sobering. It's nice to see some degree of openness from Adobe about it.
