The remote host is missing an update for the 'xpdf' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. It is an X Window System based viewer for Portable Document Format (PDF) files. Multiple security vulnerabilities found in Xpdf's JBIG2 decoder could potentially allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service. Upgrade to the updated package is recommended
