The version of Adobe Acrobat installed on the remote Windows host contains a flaw in the β€˜Collab.collectEmailInfo()’ function that may allow a remote attacker to crash the application or to take control of the affected system.

To exploit this flaw, an attacker would need to trick a user on the affected system into opening a specially crafted PDF file using the affected application.
