Instead of “responsible disclosure”, they collect weaknesses and vulnerabilities to allow evil deeds, selling them to the highest bidder (often on the black market), or using them for offensive action like espionage or other cyber-attacks… However, some people, organisations or companies prefer a different approach. Alongside publication, remediation measures are also documented – and applied through the standard update mechanisms. On one hand, there is a generally accepted grace period for those that practice “responsible disclosure”: software owners usually have about three months to fix reported vulnerabilities before they are made public. Not all vulnerabilities and weaknesses are immediately reported and published.

However, the problem is the word “known”. That's it.Standard best practice in computer security involves always keeping all your devices up-to-date so that malicious evil-doers cannot exploit known vulnerabilities and weaknesses to their advantage.

It is just a simple tool to improve the integration. This extension is an independent project and has no relationship to this project. PDF-XChange Viewer is a trademark of Tracker Software Products, registered in the England and other countries. However, at this point, there is nor Mac neither Linux versions of this PDF viewer. This native client is only available on Window, Linux and Mac operating systems. Note: you will need to install a small native client for this extension to be able to communicate with this PDF viewer. This way a copy of the PDF file is first downloaded to the default download directory and then the local file is passed to the PDF-XChange Viewer. If you also want to keep the original PDF file, go to the options page and enable 'Download PDF file' option. Note: PDF-XChange Viewer is capable of opening remote URLs so this extension by default only passes the URL of the PDF file to the PDF-XChange Viewer. In the options page, you can configure the extension to open PDF links with PDF-XChange Viewer as well. After installation, a new item is added to the right-click context menu for PDF links. This extension offers opening PDF links with PDF-XChange™ Viewer.
