AdobeReader_sve providing libstdc++.so.6 - malicious?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I just noticed that if I enable the adobe repository, the AdobeReader
quickly gets pulled in when installing the flash plugin on a 64 bit
machine, since it seems to be providing libstdc++.so.6. This just
seems a little bit suspect to me.

Eg. if I run

yum -v install nspluginwrapper.x86_64 nspluginwrapper.i686
alsa-plugins-pulseaudio.i686 libcurl.i686

and then look at the output, I see

--> Processing Dependency: libstdc++.so.6(CXXABI_1.3) for package:
1:cups-libs-1.4.3-6.fc13.i686
Searching pkgSack for dep: libstdc++.so.6(CXXABI_1.3)
TSINFO: Marking AdobeReader_sve-8.1.7-1.i486 as install for
1:cups-libs-1.4.3-6.fc13.i686


It seems a little like Adobe is trying to install Reader via a
backdoor dependency?

Jonathan.
