That means it will also carry all the bugs of that era. I would
recommend not installing Adobe Reader as your primary PDF viewer
unless you have a mechanism to automatically apply security updates.
If you also have e-mail on your workstation, I would additionally
recommend using something like AppArmor to confine it. I'm using
evince as my primary PDF viewer on Ubuntu, which has a very workable
default AppArmor profile for it (never been in the way in all those
years).
PDF (and especially Adobe Reader) has become a prime target for spear phishing.
With kind regards,
