The defect reported by Jonas did not expose any security issues, but caused the investigation that demonstrated the issue in platform.

Also, PDF.js is a web based solution, and could not potentially cause any issues. Firefox's PDF Viewer is modification of PDF.js and cannot be really called "PDF.js".

Please fix a description of the security advisory.
