Description Josh Bressers 2005-12-13 17:34:14 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #173888 +++

Numerous issue have been discovered in xpdf (which cups contains the source for)

An attacker could construct a carefully crafted PDF file that could cause Xpdf
to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code when opened. 

This issue should also affect RHEL3

I will attach a patch as soon as we have a complete one.

Comment 1 Josh Bressers 2005-12-14 15:30:54 UTC
The patches for these issues are in attachment 122226 [details] and attachment 122227 [details].

The sooner we can have new packages rolled the better as the Christmas holiday
is quickly approaching.

Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2005-12-14 15:53:38 UTC
Do we have an RHTS test case for this?

Comment 3 Josh Bressers 2005-12-14 16:13:58 UTC
There aren't currently any reproducers for these issues.

Please note that these issues affect xpdf, kdegraphics, cups, gpdf, tetex and
poppler.  Some cooperation will probably make things easier.
