(Adobe Acrobat Reader: Buffer overflow vulnerability)
A buffer overflow has been discovered in the
UnixAppOpenFilePerform() function, which is called when Adobe Acrobat
Reader tries to open a file with the "\\Filespec" tag.
Impact
By enticing a user to open a specially crafted PDF document, a
remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary
code.
Workaround
There is no known workaround at this time.

http://www.idefense.com/application/poi/display?id=279&type=vulnerabilities&flashstatus=true
http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/329083.html
Solution:
Since Adobe will most likely not update the 5.0 series of Adobe
Acrobat Reader for Linux, all users should upgrade to the latest
available version of the 7.0 series:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-text/acroread-7.0"
Risk factor : Medium
