Detail

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog) Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog) Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger)

The following packages are affected:

cupsys cupsys-bsd cupsys-client kpdf kword libpoppler0c2 tetex-bin xpdf-reader xpdf-utils

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to the following versions:

Ubuntu 4.10:
xpdf: 3.00-8ubuntu1.9
cupsys: 1.1.20final+cvs20040330-4ubuntu16.9
tetex-bin: 2.0.2-21ubuntu0.7

Ubuntu 5.04:
xpdf: 3.00-11ubuntu3.5
tetex-bin: 2.0.2-25ubuntu0.3
kword: 1:1.3.5-2ubuntu1.2
kpdf: 4:3.4.0-0ubuntu3.2

Ubuntu 5.10:
libpoppler0c2: 0.4.2-0ubuntu6.4
tetex-bin: 2.0.2-30ubuntu3.3
kword: 1:1.4.1-0ubuntu7.1
kpdf: 4:3.4.3-0ubuntu2.1

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes.

Details follow:

infamous41md discovered several integer overflows in the XPDF code, which is present in xpdf, the Poppler library, tetex-bin, KOffice, and kpdf. By tricking an user into opening a specially crafted PDF file, an attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the application that processes the document.

The CUPS printing system also uses XPDF code to convert PDF files to PostScript. By attempting to print such a crafted PDF file, a remote attacker could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the printer server (user 'cupsys').
