      'Description'    => %q{
          This module exploits an unsafe Javascript API implemented in Foxit PDF Reader
          version 4.2. The createDataObject() Javascript API function allows for writing
          arbitrary files to the file system. This issue was fixed in version 4.3.1.0218.

          Note: This exploit uses the All Users directory currently, which required
          administrator privileges to write to. This means an administrative user has to
          open the file to be successful. Kind of lame but thats how it goes sometimes in
          the world of file write bugs.
