Jul 7 CVE-2010-0188 PDF Britain intelligence service started analysis of the spy radio

CVE-2010-0188 Unspecified vulnerability in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 8.x before 8.2.1 and 9.x before 9.3.1 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors

The message attachment name says "Britain intelligence service started analysis of the spy radio". Then the body says "internal info".
While it can lure in a few readers, I'd say it is a very inane attempt to get into the targeted attack business. In general, I have not seen any high quality (zero day-low detection) or well designed targeted messages that would be clearly originating in Russia (not to say they don't exist). If you did see any convincing targeted attacks that were or looked like they were from Russia and they are as good as these, please let me know. I have a few more editorial comments regarding espionage in general and targeted attacks in particular, but I should probably leave them out and let you have fun with the attachment. Let me know if you find anything extra interesting inside (M).
