Backport security fixes: CVE-2019-9199, CVE-2019-9687.. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2019-023ea18e20 2019-03-29 02:58:04.249938 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Name : podofo Product : Fedora 29 Version : 0.9.6 Release : 6.fc29 URL : https://github.com/podofo/podofo Summary : Tools and libraries to work with the PDF file format Description : 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. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Update Information: Backport security fixes: CVE-2019-9199, CVE-2019-9687. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------ChangeLog: * Wed Mar 13 2019 Sandro Mani - 0.9.6-6 - Backport security fixes: CVE-2019-9199, CVE-2019-9687 * Tue Feb 5 2019 Sandro Mani - 0.9.6-5 - Backport security fix for CVE-2018-20751 * Sat Feb 2 2019 Fedora Release Engineering - 0.9.6-4 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_30_Mass_Rebuild * Wed Dec 19 2018 Sandro Mani - 0.9.6-3 - Backport security fixes: CVE-2018-5783, CVE-2018-11254, CVE-2018-11255, CVE-2018-11256, CVE-2018-12982, CVE-2018-14320, CVE-2018-19532 - Run unittests --------------------------------------------------------------------------------References: [ 1 ] Bug #1687761 - CVE-2019-9687 podofo: heap-based buffer overflow in function PdfString::ConvertUTF16toUTF8 in base/PdfString.cpp https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1687761 [ 2 ] Bug #1683620 - CVE-2019-9199 podofo: Null pointer dereference in function PoDoFo::Impose::PdfTranslator::setSource() in pdftranslator.cpp https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1683620 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
