"The remote host contains a version of the 'AcroPDF' ActiveX control
included with Adobe Reader and Acrobat.

The version of this ActiveX control on the remote host reportedly
exposes several methods that fail to handle malformed arguments. If an
attacker can trick a user on the affected host into visiting a
specially crafted web page, he can leverage these issues to execute
arbitrary code on the host subject to the user's privileges.");
