Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.1.2 and earlier, and before 7.1.1, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a malformed PDF document, as demonstrated by 2008-HI2.pdf.

The Javascript API in Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0.9 and possibly 8.1.1 exposes a dangerous method, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands or trigger a buffer overflow via a crafted PDF file that invokes app.checkForUpdate with a malicious callback function.

Adobe Reader and Acrobat Trial allow remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a file:// URI in a PDF document, as demonstrated with <</URI(file:///C:/)/S/URI>>, a different issue than CVE-2007-0045.
