CentOS Errata and Security Advisory CESA-2007:1028
TeTeX is an implementation of TeX. TeX takes a text file and a set of
formatting commands as input, and creates a typesetter-independent DeVice
Independent (dvi) file as output.
Alin Rad Pop discovered a flaw in the handling of PDF files. An attacker
could create a malicious PDF file that would cause TeTeX to crash, or
potentially execute arbitrary code when opened. (CVE-2007-5393)
Users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain
backported patches to resolve these issues.
