Debian: DSA-4303-1: okular security update
Summary
Joran Herve discovered that the Okular document viewer was susceptible
to directory traversal via malformed .okular files (annotated document
archives), which could result in the creation of arbitrary files.
For the stable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in
version 4:16.08.2-1+deb9u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your okular packages.
For the detailed security status of okular please refer to
