You are mixing up two different vulnerabilities [1]. The vulnerability
fixed by the 7.0.1 upgrade was "acroread -- plug-in buffer overflow
vulnerability" [2]. The vulnerability portaudit is warning you about
is "acroread -- XML External Entity vulnerability" [3]. As far as I
know Adobe has not released any fix for the Linux version of Adobe
Reader for [3].
