Attackers continue to target Adobe products because the software is widely used and not always upgraded with the latest Adobe updates. Security researchers have also been devoting a lot of time to finding vulnerabilities in the company’s software. While antivirus vendors push out signatures that can detect malware attempting to exploit vulnerabilities, experts warn that new malicious code is developed daily and not all attacks can be detected.

Adobe issued another advisory last Tuesday warning of ongoing PDF attacks targeting a zero-day vulnerability in Adobe Reader and Acrobat. Some security firms have detected limited email attacks containing malicious PDF files attempting to exploit a remote code execution vulnerability in Reader and Acrobat 9.2 and earlier versions.

Adobe has reportedly said it did not plan an emergency patch to repair the hole because it did not want to disrupt its quarterly update process.

To hide the author info (written by) on the pages (pages only – not post) I found this post. It wasn’t my template or code but I played with my code similarly to remove both items:

“Open the page.php and delete this line:

<?php _e(‘By’,'themename’); ?> <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?>,
Save your changes, and you are done.”

Mine varied by the following

Removed “Post by” and Date Stamp – following lines of code, (always make copies before changing)…

<span>posted by <?php the_author() ?></span></div>
<div>
<span><?php the_time(‘M’) ?></span>
<span><?php the_time(‘j’) ?></span>

Best to just make a template or 2 to play with before the main page.php
