Calendar Grey September 6, 2019
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Fedora 29 users are advised that improvement patches for pdfresurrect have been released to address vulnerabilities, including buffer overflow issues and out-of-bounds writes
* Security fix for CVE-2019-14267 * Security fix for CVE-2019-14934

Summary

PDFResurrect is a tool aimed at analyzing PDF documents. The PDF format

allows for previous document changes to be retained in a more recent

version of the document, thereby creating a running history of changes

for the document. This tool attempts to extract all previous versions

while also producing a summary of changes between versions. This tool

can also "scrub" or write data over the original instances of PDF objects

that have been modified or deleted, in an effort to disguise information

from previous versions that might not be intended for anyone else to read.
