  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted
    document, possibly resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary code
    with the privileges of the user running the application. A remote
    attacker could also perform cross-site request forgery attacks, or
    cause a Denial of Service.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All Adobe Acrobat Reader users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-text/acroread-8.1.2&quot;</code>
  </resolution>
