                    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.
