The Firefox PDF implementation does not even use the poppler library, it's a completely Not Invented Here solution
so what - that makes your from a security experts point of view insane "Konqueror is more safe because nobody targets it for attacks" and "hey there was a security hole" not better
i revert your "does not even use the poppler library" easily with - Add poppler-0.15.0-CVE-2010-3702.patch - Add poppler-0.15.0-CVE-2010-3703.patch - Add poppler-0.15.0-CVE-2010-3704.patch - CVE-2009-3607 poppler: create_surface_from_thumbnail_dataand say "hmm Konqueror and Okular where vulnerable while Firefox was likely not at that moment" just to show that your whole security argumentation is pointless
