Description Dhananjay Arunesh 2019-07-09 03:54:18 UTC

In Xpdf 4.01.01, there is a heap-based buffer over-read in the function
DCTStream::readScan() located at Stream.cc. It can, for example, be triggered by
sending a crafted PDF document to the pdftops tool. It might allow an attacker
to cause Information Disclosure.
