Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Adobe Acrobat version 5 Description: The issue concerns improper validation of JavaScript in PDF files, allowing remote attackers to write arbitrary files into the Plug-ins folder. This can lead to the spread of malicious code to other PDF documents. Recommendations: For Adobe Acrobat version 5, update to a newer version that properly validates JavaScript in PDF files to prevent arbitrary file writing into the Plug-ins folder.
