Fedora 26 Evince Command Injection Advisory CVE-2017-1000159

Evince is simple multi-page document viewer. It can display and print

Portable Document Format (PDF), PostScript (PS) and Encapsulated PostScript

(EPS) files. When supported by the document format, evince allows searching

for text, copying text to the clipboard, hypertext navigation,

table-of-contents bookmarks and editing of forms.

Support for other document formats such as DVI and DJVU can be added by

installing additional backends.
