What if you use pdf.js instead of adobe?

Hello.
Remember this is CVE:2010-1240 and this is CVE: 2013-0640 and this is CVE: 2016-0944 ? Well, or this www.cvedetails.com/product/497/Adobe-Acrobat-Reade...
And what if you don't view Adobe PDF, but use browser tools?
But what if you even throw out MS Office and use the online version? Are there any attacks for them?
Will users be saved from the villains by going online?

You can, of course, open pictures and read fb2 files with a browser, but there are file managers for browsers, but why? There are normal free PDF readers that can turn off scripts. For testing on portableapps, there are already two or three of them.
"Will users be saved from the villains by going online?"
They will be saved from one thing, but they will gain a bunch of new ones. "Security" and "online" are hardly compatible concepts.
Attack the "online version" of what? office?
