I wouldn't call Photoshop an achievement, it's a hodgepodge of old libraries and bugs at the best of times.
Adobe refused to patch a vulnerability in CS5 at one point, telling people to purchase and upgrade to CS6 (US$199) if they wanted to not be vulnerable to malicious code execution. In response to the uproar they eventually backported the patch.

Not a constructive comment, sorry, but I couldn't help chuckle reading this. It's beyond ridiculous.

I think the point is that they've had plenty of time to get their shit together. Being proud of following best practices for a year when your company has been around for three decades is pathetic.
