 CVE-2009-1188

Multiple integer overflow flaws were found in poppler. An attacker could
create a malicious PDF file that would cause applications that use
poppler (such as Evince) to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary
code when opened. (CVE-2009-0147, CVE-2009-1179, CVE-2009-1187,
CVE-2009-1188)

Multiple buffer overflow flaws were found in poppler's JBIG2 decoder. An
attacker could create a malicious PDF file that would cause applications
that use poppler (such as Evince) to crash or, potentially, execute
arbitrary code when opened. (CVE-2009-0146, CVE-2009-1182)

Multiple flaws were found in poppler's JBIG2 decoder that could lead to
the freeing of arbitrary memory. An attacker could create a malicious
PDF file that would cause applications that use poppler (such as Evince)
to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code when opened.
(CVE-2009-0166, CVE-2009-1180)

Multiple input validation flaws were found in poppler's JBIG2 decoder.
An attacker could create a malicious PDF file that would cause
applications that use poppler (such as Evince) to crash or, potentially,
execute arbitrary code when opened. (CVE-2009-0800)

Multiple denial of service flaws were found in poppler's JBIG2 decoder.
An attacker could create a malicious PDF file that would cause
applications that use poppler (such as Evince) to crash when opened.
