Detail

iDEFENSE has reported a buffer overflow in xpdf, the portable document format (PDF) suite. Similar code is present in the PDF processing part of CUPS. A maliciously crafted PDF file could exploit this problem, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 1.1.14-5woody12.

In the unstable distribution (sid) CUPSYS does not use its own xpdf variant anymore but uses xpdf-utils.

We recommend that you upgrade your cups packages.

Title: Buffer overflow in the Gfx::doImage function in Gfx.cc for xpdf 3.00, and other products that share code such as tetex-bin and kpdf in KDE 3.2.x to 3.2.3 and 3.3.x to 3.3.2, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF file that causes the boundaries of a maskColors array to be exceeded.
Description: Buffer overflow in the Decrypt::makeFileKey2 function in Decrypt.cc for xpdf 3.00 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a PDF file with a large /Encrypt /Length keyLength value.
