CentOS 8: 2020-27fedd2b79 Critical: xyzlib API Compatibility Issue

fedora
Calendar Grey August 15, 2017
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Debian Package Alert for qpdf implementing vital fixes addressing interoperability problems and vulnerabilities.
Adding patches for CVEs in qpdf does binary incompatibility, so cups-filters needed to be rebuilt.

Summary

QPDF is a command-line program that does structural, content-preserving

transformations on PDF files. It could have been called something

like pdf-to-pdf. It includes support for merging and splitting PDFs

and to manipulate the list of pages in a PDF file. It is not a PDF viewer

or a program capable of converting PDF into other formats.

Adding patches for CVEs in qpdf does binary incompatibility, so cups-filters

needed to be rebuilt.
