| said by AVD:is it a vulnerability in the PDF protocal or the adobe (or foxit) renderer? No idea but if you don't allow PDF's to be automatically displayed then no vulnerability can be exploited 
I manually (right-click, Save As...) files I want (including PDF's). If I noticed a PDF I hadn't downloaded I wouldn't try and open it even if it is called "free prize" or similar. I'm not that naive.

Thanks for that. Just made the change here! (I Foxit without its browser plugin to open PDF's). |
