Title:	USN-1035-1 -- evince vulnerabilities
Description:	Jon Larimer discovered that Evince�s font parsers incorrectly handled certain buffer lengths when rendering a DVI file. By tricking a user into opening or previewing a DVI file that uses a specially crafted font file, an attacker could crash evince or execute arbitrary code with the user�s privileges. In the default installation of Ubuntu 9.10 and later, attackers would be isolated by the Evince AppArmor profile.

Id	Description
70303	Evince backend/dvi/mdvi-lib/tfmfile.c tfm_load_file() Function Overflow A memory corruption flaw exists in Evince. The 'tfm_load_file()' function in 'backend/dvi/mdvi-lib/tfmfile.c' suffers from an integer overflow error when parsing TFM font files, resulting in memory corruption. With a specially crafted DVI file, a context-dependent attacker can execute arbitrary code.
