Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in PDFs stems from vulnerabilities in rendering engines or malicious JavaScript, enabling data exfiltration, session hijacking, and account takeover.

Mitigations involve implementing strict Content Security Policies, robust input sanitization, and forcing file downloads to prevent direct browser rendering.
