Can please anyone tell me where to find very specific information about that vulnerability? I'd like to study and recreate one calculator opener as my homework.

Hear hear. Either full disclosure, or keep it to yourself and notify the vendor. Anything in between is just advertising to better sell the exploit (if there is one at all) to the blackhats.

I thought so. This partial disclosure BS is useless. It serves no purpose to release something like this and the video does not prove anything.

Ok... Where??

Besides, use your head, and you'll know the age of physical media and costly communication is over, copyright and proprietary software have had their day. If it wasnt for them grasping onto the legal system they'd both be extinct. Microsoft are not going to cope if they dont pull out soon.
Not really a fake.

An error in how Adobe Reader parses PDF files lets hackers make a PDF that can launch a command on the computer of whoever tries to open the file. In this example (poc = proof of concept) Notepad and Calculator is launched, but it might as well be commands to add users to the system, or install a backdoor, etc.
It is quite serious.
