Linux Mint 18.2 Ubuntu-based OS is Named 'Sonya' (betanews.com)

Brian Fagioli, writing for BetaNews: The uncertainty about Ubuntu has not deterred the Linux Mint team, however, as they are moving ahead with plans for version 18.2. While details about the upcoming version of the operating system are scarce, we have learned two important details. First, the code name for the OS will be 'Sonya,' and second, the distro will use LightDM as default display manager.

Well, if it's running plugins automatically, then the bar to exploiting it has dropped considerably from "until you install a malicious theme". Now the exploit could be as simple as "Malicious plugin", or as complex as "Someone, somehow, because that NEVER happens, finds a bug in Adobe Reader, that they can exploit."

That's my major concern.
