" … assuming that the key was not also stolen?"

Is that a sensible/defensible assumption though?

from: http://www.csoonline.com/article/742228/stolen-adobe-account...

"In an update on the data breach disclosed earlier this month, Adobe has said that source code for Photoshop was stolen."

I might be being overly paranoid, but I've shut down Adobe's Air/Acrobat/Flash updaters at the firewall until I hear plausible sounding assurances that Adobe didn't lose _everything_ in this breach, including software signing keys, update servers, DNS SOAs – the whole lot. _Maybe_ some of that stuff was better secured than the Photoshop source code… But would you bet every machine on your network that they "only" lost ~130million account credentials and the Photoshop source code, but nothing else?




Oh you mean like having the code signing service being compromised and used to signed malware?

Some people are claiming credit cards used to buy CS6 and whatnot are compromised too.
