Descriptions

Foxit Reader 2.3 before Build 3902 and 3.0 before Build 1506, including 1120 and 1301, does not require user confirmation before performing dangerous actions defined in a PDF file, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary programs and have unspecified other impact via a crafted file, as demonstrated by the "Open/Execute a file" action.

Foxit Reader v2.3 anterior a Build 3902 y v3.0 anterior a Build 1506, incluidas la 1120 y 1301, no requiere la confirmación del usuario antes de realizar acciones peligrosas en un fichero PDF, lo que permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar programas de manera arbitraria y pudiendo producir un impacto sin especificar a través de un fichero manipulado, como se ha demostrado en la acción "Abrir/Ejecutar fichero".
