Mandriva Advisories MDKSA-2006:032 : xpdf

 

Updated xpdf packages fixes heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability

February 2nd, 2006

 

Heap-based buffer overflow in Splash.cc in xpdf allows attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted splash images that produce certain values that exceed the width or height of the associated bitmap. The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.

 

 

The released versions of Mandriva GNU/Linux affected are:

  • CS3.0
  • 2006.0
