Package : atril
Version : 1.8.1+dfsg1-4+deb8u2
CVE ID : CVE-2017-1000159 CVE-2019-11459 CVE-2019-1010006
A few issues were found in Atril, the MATE document viewer.
CVE-2017-1000159
When printing from DVI to PDF, the dvipdfm tool was called without
properly sanitizing the filename, which could lead to a command
injection attack via the filename.
CVE-2019-11459
The tiff_document_render() and tiff_document_get_thumbnail() did
not check the status of TIFFReadRGBAImageOriented(), leading to
uninitialized memory access if that funcion fails.
CVE-2019-1010006
Some buffer overflow checks were not properly done, leading to
application crash or possibly arbitrary code execution when
opening maliciously crafted files.
For Debian 8 "Jessie", these problems have been fixed in version
1.8.1+dfsg1-4+deb8u2.
We recommend that you upgrade your atril packages.
