"The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200710-20
(PDFKit, ImageKits: Buffer overflow)
Maurycy Prodeus discovered an integer overflow vulnerability possibly
leading to a stack-based buffer overflow in the XPDF code which PDFKit
is based on. ImageKits also contains a copy of PDFKit.
Impact :
By enticing a user to view a specially crafted PDF file with a viewer
based on ImageKits or PDFKit such as Gentoo's ViewPDF, a remote
attacker could cause an overflow, potentially resulting in the
execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the
application.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time."

"PDFKit and ImageKits are not maintained upstream, so the packages were
masked in Portage. We recommend that users unmerge PDFKit and
ImageKits:
# emerge --unmerge gnustep-libs/pdfkit
# emerge --unmerge gnustep-libs/imagekits
As an alternative, users should upgrade their systems to use PopplerKit
instead of PDFKit and Vindaloo instead of ViewPDF."
