I also have to point out that this particular exploit only exists because 
Firefox reinvents the PDF reader wheel (shipping a PDF reader in JavaScript 
(!)) instead of reusing Okular as Konqueror does. The Firefox PDF 
implementation does not even use the poppler library, it's a completely Not 
Invented Here solution.
