Betreff:        [Assp-test] ASSP_AFC error - URI in PDF



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?
