Yet another 0-day pdf exploit in the wild

<< < (2/3) > >>

OldElmerFudd:
Do all readers open in browsers like Adobe? Even my favorite, PDF-XChange does. At least it's faster and lighter on resources.

ajp:
for PDF-XChange (my favorite, too!)
File > Preferences > File associations > Make PDF-XChange the Default PDF Viewer > Display PDF in Browser [ ] (uncheck)
Should do the trick.

I haven't installed Adobe Reader in ages. First, I stuck to version 7, then I switched to Foxit, and now it's PDF-XChange. Never looking back, I guess. And I've always hated when they get embeded on my browser window.

erikts:
I use PDF-Xchange Viewer and when I inspect the preference (Edit|Preferences|File Associations), Display PDF in Browser is unchecked by default.

What does 0-day mean?

"Breaking news".

In the exploit world, it's stuff that isn't generally known yet, and thus hasn't been patched by the vendor(s).
