Debian: New xpdf packages fix multiple vulnerabilities
Summary
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------Debian Security Advisory DSA-1537-1 security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Devin Carraway April 02, 2008 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - ------------------------------------------------------------------------Package : xpdf Vulnerability : multiple Problem type : local (remote) Debian-specific: no CVE Id(s) : CVE-2007-4352 CVE-2007-5392 CVE-2007-5393 Alin Rad Pop (Secunia) discovered a number of vulnerabilities in xpdf, a set of tools for display and conversion of Portable Document Format (PDF) files. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following three problems: CVE-2007-4352 Inadequate DCT stream validation allows an attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code by supplying a maliciously crafted PDF file. CVE-2007-5392 An integer overflow vulnerability in DCT stream handling could allow an attacker to overflow a heap buffer, enabling the execution of arbitrary code. CVE-2007-5393 A buffer overflow vulnerability in xpdf's CCITT image compression handlers allows overflow on the heap, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code by supplying a maliciously crafted CCITTFaxDecode filter. For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 3.01-9.1+etch2. For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 3.02-1.3. We recommend that you upgrade your xpdf packages. Upgrade instructions - --------------------wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file.
