USN-850-2 -- poppler regression

ID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:700309Date: (C)2011-05-13   (M)2021-06-02
Class: PATCHFamily: unix




USN-850-1 fixed vulnerabilities in poppler. The security fix for CVE-2009-3605 introduced a regression that would cause certain applications, such as Okular, to segfault when opening certain PDF files. This update fixes the problem. We apologize for the inconvenience. Original advisory details: It was discovered that poppler contained multiple security issues when parsing malformed PDF documents. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a crafted PDF file, an attacker could cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code with privileges of the user invoking the program.
