Default RIM issues patch for serious BlackBerry flaw




Research in Motion has issued a patch for a serious security flaw that puts businesses using the ubiquitous BlackBerry at risk.The vulnerability affects the BlackBerry Enterprise Server versions 4.1.3 through 4.1.5 and BlackBerry Professional Software 4.1.4. It resides in a component that processes PDF files. Attackers could exploit it by sending a booby-trapped document that could execute malicious code on a victim's device. Secunia rated the flaw "highly critical," the second highest notch on its five-tier rating system.RIM recommends all users install the update as soon as possible, or at least apply a workaround.
