Hacker Finds a Way to Exploit PDF Files, Without Vulnerability

Didier Stevens found a way to exploit PDF files without vulnerability. A possible hacker is able to run any executable file he wishes. Depending on the PDF reader application used the user might see a dialog box or not, although the content of this dialog may also be modified.
Visit the URL bellow for more info:

Note: This have nothing to do with Elxis PDF. It is a general security issue with the PDF files.
