A vulnerability has been discovered in Mozilla PDF.js could allow for arbitrary code execution. Mozilla PDF.js is a PDF viewer that is built into Mozilla Firefox and can be used by other web browsers. Exploitation of this vulnerability could allow for arbitrary code execution in the context of the logged on user. Depending on the privileges associated with the user, an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have less rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.
