--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2004-348 2004-10-21 ---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 2 Name : xpdf Version : 3.00 Release : 3.4 Summary : A PDF file viewer for the X Window System. Description : Xpdf is an X Window System based viewer for Portable Document Format (PDF) files. Xpdf is a small and efficient program which uses standard X fonts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
Xpdf is an X Window System based viewer for Portable Document Format (PDF) files.
During a source code audit, Chris Evans and others discovered a number of integer overflow bugs that affected all versions of xpdf. An attacker could construct a carefully crafted PDF file that could cause xpdf to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code when opened. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0888 to this issue.
Users of xpdf are advised to upgrade to this errata package, which contains a backported patch correcting these issues. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Thu Oct 21 2004 Than Ngo <than@xxxxxxxxxx> 1:3.00-3.4
