With AFC 4.52 and no exceptions to exe-bin, we've found some PDF's with web
links in them to be erroneously blocked.
This seems to happen with the PDF is created with certain invoicing
software which creates *annotations* to link text to the vendor's website.
Why they're doing this, I have no idea, but we can't change that - these
are inbound PDF's.
I looked at one of the problem PDF's using a binary capable text editor and
saw a section like this:
18 0 obj
<<
/Type /Annot
/Subtype /Link
/Border [0 0 0]
/Rect [110 671 177 680]
/A << /Type /Action /S /URI /URI (http://example.com) >>
>>
endobj
If I remove that entire section, the file passes through ASSP filtering
without issue.
If I create a sample PDF in Word and just have a link to a website, all is
fine, the trouble seems specific to annotations with links in them.
For the time being, I've added the :URIPDF exception and the messages are
getting through.
Do you think this is something that can be addressed?
