Shumway can be used as a runtime for those movies - the site owner just to need fallback to its HTML player. It plays common ActionScript 1/2/3 usages well.

There are not exploitable (at least not the same way). Firefox PDF viewer is a modification of PDF.js, so PDF.js code would run in the browser without a web server. The exploit might poke a hole in EMBED tag security of the web browser (and not in the PDF.js code itself). WP plugin shall be safe as any web application (unless it introduces similar security hole in its code, e.g. XSS).

For users that are opted in telemetry reporting, it can go up to 40M PDF views per browser version [1]

Original PDF - 1.0M, SVGs - 7.7M, gzip'ed SVGs - 1.7M. I think the latter is a preferable format for the web, so you are looking 70% increase for this types of documents, but bare in mind that you may send only certain pages.

Now you have alternative to not use PDF (viewer)?

What does "the fonts are not kept" mean? http://pramodhkp.github.io/pdf2svg/svgdump/tracemonkey-1.svg looks as original PDF page and the SVG contains embedded fonts.

Just a hint: "pdfjs.disabled" is hard switch off and it makes it harder to recover native PDF plugin viewing capability. Switching using Preferences/Options->Applications makes it easier. Try it and stop complaining that you don't have a choice :)

It looks like they did it in a hurry (on the next day) just after https://hacks.mozilla.org/2014/05/how-fast-is-pdf-js/ was published? Competition FTW!

> H.264 is a public standard that anyone is free to implement.

That's correct -- you can implement it. But you have to pay for its usage. See http://www.mpegla.com/main/programs/avc/Documents/AVC_TermsS...

EDIT: guess who is paying for this?

> If client side rendering is too slow, then don't render on the client. Cache the rasterized pdf as tiles up in the cloud and only read the actual document...

Some people are not comfortable with giving their financial/proprietary/secret information to third party's "cloud". And since they have to pay for "cloud", you end up paying for it somehow at the end. With client side code: 1) nobody knows what you are looking at, 2) and you don't rely on network connectivity much.

Filing nothing will not be helpful for sure. Creating a report in any related bug reporting system will bring developer's, QA's or manager's attention. Just provide enough information, so somebody else except you can reproduce the problem.

Yes, you can build you own personalized extension for Firefox, Chrome or Opera from PDF.js source code, which will disable text layer. (see also #textLayer=off feature at https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/wiki/Debugging-pdf.js#url-...)
