Acrobat also has a lot of security exploits (!).
But related not to Java-script.
A quick Google search suggests otherwise:

Uh, did you read the link you gave?
Did you read your own messages? You said Adobe used JavaScript to show
it doesn't have serious problems. Then it was pointed out that Adobe
also get a lot of exploits. You responded by saying that they were not
related to JavaScript. You are proved wrong, only to retort by saying
that they have been patched. That was not the point. The point was that
they do exist, which you wouldn't acknowledge.
Hell, just read the quoted messages above. It's pretty obvious.
JavaScript is not the only technology that has problems. Java had it
share. even SM and FF constantly update because of overrun exploits.
Sure Acrobat had their problems, even with Java script, but not currently.
I suppose with with Normal PC anything is dangerous. I can remember when
Computers first came out with DOS (I worked for school system) little 11
& 12 kids could go in and remove a Config.sys file or other files from
system and cause system to crash. I wore out many a copy of Norton
Tools, Norton commander just replacing these files.
