+ <p>Remote exploitation of an input validation error in the
+ uudecoding feature of Adobe Acrobat Reader (Unix) 5.0
+ allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code.</p>
+ <p>The Unix and Linux versions of Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0
+ automatically attempt to convert uuencoded documents
+ back into their original format. The vulnerability
+ specifically exists in the failure of Acrobat Reader to
+ check for the backtick shell metacharacter in the filename
+ before executing a command with a shell. This allows a
+ maliciously constructed filename to execute arbitrary
+ programs.</p>
