You could be getting more than you bargained for when you download a PDF or receive one as an email attachment. PDFs can run scripts upon opening them and could potentially compromise your system.

Adobe Systems Inc. confirmed the existence of two new vulnerabilities in their Adobe Acrobat Reader application. The news was announced May 4 by Trustwave and other security agencies which stated that Adobe expects to release patches by May 12, 2009. The vulnerabilities involve JavaScript functions that ‘getAnnots ()’ (CVE-2009-1492) and spell.customDictionaryOpen (CVE-2009-1493). According to Secunia.com the ‘getAnnots ()’ function is a JavaScript API in Acrobat Reader and Acrobat that allows remote assault to cause a denial of service through memory corruption or execute an arbitrary code via a PDF that contains that annotation. This is conducted through an OpenAction entry using JavaScript code that issues a series of crafted integer arguments or calls.

The customDictionaryOpen spell method is also a JavaScript API that affects Adobe Reader 8.x – 9.1 running primarily on Linux System. It allows remote hackers to deny services through a memory corruption and, similar to the ‘getAnnots’, may be executed through an arbitrary code via a PDF. Mac users don’t have to be too concerned about the customDictionaryOpen function as this is mainly something that will come up using Linux. The most troubling out of the two is the ‘getAnnots ()’.

These vulnerabilities cause a Macintosh-based Acrobat Reader versions 9.x – 8.x and Acrobat 9.x – 8.x to crash and have the potential to allow a hacker to attack and take control of a vulnerable system. Simply disabling JavaScript will not resolve anything; it only disables the vulnerable JavaScript component but does not reduce system compromise. The United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT) has recommended the following precautions for those that have or yet to encounter these PDFs.

Do not open unsolicited PDF files from distrusted or suspicious sources; switch your default PDF handler to Preview for the time being; and disable Adobe Reader JavaScript Preferences to prevent hackers from exploiting system vulnerabilities. To do this:

(1) Launch Adobe Acrobat Reader
(2) Select Edit from the Menu Bar
(3) Select Preferences
(4) Select the Internet Tab
(5) Uncheck the “Display PDF in Browser”

In addition, prevent your default browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, etc.) from automatically opening PDF documents. The installer that loads Adobe Reader and Acrobat configures any one of your browsers to open a PDF file without any user interaction. To disable the browser from displaying of PDF documents:

(1) Launch Adobe Acrobat Reader
(2) From the main Menu select Edit
(3) Select Preferences, Click on the Internet tab
(4) Uncheck “Display PDF in browser” checkbox.

Avoiding opening PDF documents in a web browser reduces the possibility of attack. The following workaround applied to the updated version of Adobe Reader should protect against future vulnerabilities.

If you have a PC, additional preventative measures are listed at the US-CERT site that further reduce your chances of attack. Currently Adobe recognizes this as a critical issue and recommends that you follow the above listed steps and exercise common sense when opening PDF files. Please visit the Adobe Product Security Incident Response Team blog for further updates on this issue.

Don’t worry, I will also introduce another way to force uninstall Adobe reader 9.

Force Uninstall Adobe reader 9 with the Best Uninstall Tool

Best Uninstall Tool will help you to force uninstall and remove Adobe reader 9 Highlights by doing 3 things. Firstly, the uninstaller uninstalls the program. Once been finished it will fully scan your registry and your hard-drive to find any files that are related to the program.

Free download Best Uninstall Tool – the best uninstall tool to help you force uninstall Adobe reader 9 with great success and make sure all the now-defunct Registry entries and related files are eliminated automatically with a few clicks.

l  Sometimes these programs have updates, but they update the main components without consideration of being able to uninstall the whole program. Which means that when an uninstall is done, these additional pieces may still be left ‘hanging’.

l  Some uninstallers without some sort of ‘logging’ module are not able to completely uninstall programs. Furthermore, it can cause risks to your PC.

l  Add-ons, Spyware or more that are intentionally installed into your computer by bundling itself to a normal program without the related uninstall files.

For a green PC user, it may be a little difficult. But do worry! With the automatic methods below, you can force uninstall Adobe Reader thoroughly.
