Notes:

- Reproduces on Adobe Reader X (10.1.12) and Adobe Reader XI (11.0.09) for 
Windows, on Windows 7, with Application Verifier enabled.

- The “ESI” register points into a busy heap region, which is partially 
filled with 0xc0 bytes because Application Verifier is enabled.

- The type of the crash and the memory context suggests that this is a 
use-after-free vulnerability: object fields and methods are accessed from 
memory which has been freed and assigned to some other allocation.

- In some cases, the application crashes inside of a virtual method belonging 
to another class. This implies that another (incompatible) object is allocated 
in the memory in question after the "free", but before the "use", thus 
illustrating the exploitability degree of this vulnerability.

- Attached samples: signal_sigsegv_f4716324_2848_2913.pdf (crashing file), 
2913.pdf (original file).

This bug is subject to a 90 day disclosure deadline. If 90 days elapse without 
a broadly available patch, then the bug report will automatically become 
visible to the public.
