CVSS v3.1 |
| xpdf PDF viewer client earlier than 0.91 does not properly launch a web browser for embedded URL's, which allows an attacker to execute arbitrary commands via a URL that contains shell metacharacters. |
| Unspecified vulnerability in certain versions of xpdf after 3.00, as used in various products including (a) pdfkit.framework, (b) gpdf, (c) pdftohtml, and (d) libextractor, has unknown impact and user-assisted attack vectors, possibly involving errors in (1) gmem.c, (2) SplashXPathScanner.cc, (3) JBIG2Stream.cc, (4) JPXStream.cc, and/or (5) Stream.cc. NOTE: this description is based on Debian advisory DSA 979, which is based on changes that were made after other vulnerabilities such as CVE-2006-0301 and CVE-2005-3624 through CVE-2005-3628 were fixed. Some of these newer fixes appear to be security-relevant, although it is not clear if they fix specific issues or are defensive in nature. |
| Integer overflow in pdftops, as used in Xpdf 2.01 and earlier, xpdf-i, and CUPS before 1.1.18, allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a ColorSpace entry with a large number of elements, as demonstrated by cups-pdf. |
| Various PDF viewers including (1) Adobe Acrobat 5.06 and (2) Xpdf 1.01 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in an embedded hyperlink. |
| Multiple integer overflows in xpdf 3.0, and other packages that use xpdf code such as CUPS, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code, a different set of vulnerabilities than those identified by CVE-2004-0888. |
| 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. |
| xpdf and kpdf do not properly validate the "loca" table in PDF files, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (disk consumption and hang) via a PDF file with a "broken" loca table, which causes a large temporary file to be created when xpdf attempts to reconstruct the information. |
| Heap-based buffer overflow in the StreamPredictor function in Xpdf 3.01, as used in products such as (1) Poppler, (2) teTeX, (3) KDE kpdf, and (4) pdftohtml, (5) KOffice KWord, (6) CUPS, and (7) libextractor allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a PDF file with an out-of-range numComps (number of components) field. |
| Heap-based buffer overflow in the JPXStream::readCodestream function in the JPX stream parsing code (JPXStream.c) for xpdf 3.01 and earlier, as used in products such as (1) Poppler, (2) teTeX, (3) KDE kpdf, (4) CUPS, and (5) libextractor allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (heap corruption) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF file with large size values that cause insufficient memory to be allocated. |
