Fedora 29: 2018-6b9320d9c9 Critical PodoFo Memory Issues

PoDoFo is a library to work with the PDF file format. The name comes from

the first letter of PDF (Portable Document Format). A few tools to work

with PDF files are already included in the PoDoFo package.

The PoDoFo library is a free, portable C++ library which includes classes

to parse PDF files and modify their contents into memory. The changes can be

written back to disk easily. The parser can also be used to extract

information from a PDF file (for example the parser could be used in a PDF

viewer). Besides parsing PoDoFo includes also very simple classes to create

your own PDF files. All classes are documented so it is easy to start writing

your own application using PoDoFo.
