PDFex: Major Security Flaws in PDF Encryption
After investigating the security of PDF signatures, we had a deeper look at PDF 
encryption. In co­ope­ra­ti­on with our friends from Müns­ter Uni­ver­si­ty of 
Ap­p­lied Sci­en­ces, we discovered severe weaknesses in the PDF encryption 
standard which lead to full plaintext exfiltration in an active-attacker 
scenario.
