CVE-2004-0631

CVE-2004-0631 describes a critical buffer overflow vulnerability in the uudecoding feature of Adobe Acrobat Reader versions 5.0.5 and 5.0.6 for Unix and Linux, potentially affecting other versions as well. This flaw allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by supplying a PDF file with an excessively long filename to the uudecode command. With a CVSS score of 10.0, this vulnerability poses a severe risk, enabling complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability with low attack complexity and no authentication required. While no active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion has been identified, its high FAUCET Risk Score of 92/100 indicates its potential for severe impact if exploited.
