USN-554-1: teTeX and TeX Live vulnerabilities

Bastien Roucaries discovered that dvips as included in tetex-bin and texlive-bin did not properly perform bounds checking. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted dvi file, dvips could be made to crash and execute code as the user invoking the program...

Ubuntu 5.10 : tetex-bin vulnerability (USN-410-2)

USN-410-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the poppler PDF loader library. This update provides the corresponding updates for a copy of this code in tetex-bin in Ubuntu 5.10. Versions of tetex-bin after Ubuntu 5.10 use poppler directly and do not need a separate update. The poppler PDF loader library did...

Debian DSA-1350-1 : tetex-bin - integer overflow

It was discovered that an integer overflow in the xpdf PDF viewer may lead to the execution of arbitrary code if a malformed PDF file is opened. tetex-bin includes a copy of the xpdf code and required an update as well. %NASLMINLEVEL 70300 C Tenable Network Security, Inc.

USN-410-2: teTeX vulnerability

USN-410-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the poppler PDF loader library. This update provides the corresponding updates for a copy of this code in tetex-bin in Ubuntu 5.10. Versions of tetex-bin after Ubuntu 5.10 use poppler directly and do not need a separate update. Original advisory details: The...

Debian DSA-937-1 : tetex-bin - buffer overflows

'infamous41md' and Chris Evans discovered several heap based buffer overflows in xpdf, the Portable Document Format PDF suite, which is also present in tetex-bin, the binary files of teTeX, and which can lead to a denial of service by crashing the application or possibly to the execution of...

USN-270-1: xpdf vulnerabilities

Derek Noonburg discovered several integer overflows in the XPDF code, which is present in xpdf, the Poppler library, and tetex-bin. By tricking an user into opening a specially crafted PDF file, an attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the application that...

Ubuntu 4.10 / 5.04 / 5.10 : xpdf/cupsys/tetex-bin/kdegraphics/koffice vulnerabilities (USN-227-1)

infamous41md discovered several integer overflows in the XPDF code, which is present in xpdf, the Poppler library, tetex-bin, KOffice, and kpdf. By tricking an user into opening a specially crafted PDF file, an attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the...

Ubuntu 4.10 / 5.04 / 5.10 : xpdf, poppler, cupsys, tetex-bin vulnerabilities (USN-236-1)

Chris Evans discovered several integer overflows in the XPDF code, which is present in xpdf, the Poppler library, and tetex-bin. By tricking an user into opening a specially crafted PDF file, an attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the application that...

Ubuntu 4.10 : xpdf vulnerabilities (USN-14-1)

Markus Meissner discovered even more integer overflow vulnerabilities in xpdf, a viewer for PDF files. These integer overflows can eventually lead to buffer overflows. The Common UNIX Printing System CUPS uses the same code to print PDF files; tetex-bin uses the code to generate PDF output and...

Ubuntu 4.10 : tetex-bin vulnerability (USN-51-1)

Javier Fernandez-Sanguino Pena noticed that 'xdvizilla', an auxiliary script to integrate DVI file viewing in Mozilla-based browsers, created temporary files and directories in an insecure manner. This could allow a symbolic link attack to create or overwrite arbitrary files with the privileges o...

Ubuntu 4.10 : tetex-bin vulnerabilities (USN-9-1)

Chris Evans and Marcus Meissner recently discovered several integer overflow vulnerabilities in xpdf, a viewer for PDF files. Because tetex-bin contains xpdf code, it is also affected. These vulnerabilities could be exploited by an attacker providing a specially crafted TeX, LaTeX, or PDF file...

Ubuntu 4.10 : xpdf, tetex-bin vulnerabilities (USN-48-1)

A potential buffer overflow has been found in the xpdf viewer. An insufficient input validation could be exploited by an attacker providing a specially crafted PDF file which, when processed by xpdf, could result in abnormal program termination or the execution of attacker supplied program code...

USN-236-2: xpdf vulnerabilities in kword, kpdf

USN-236-1 fixed several vulnerabilities in xpdf. kpdf and kword contain copies of xpdf code and are thus vulnerable to the same issues. For reference, this is the original advisory: Chris Evans discovered several integer overflows in the XPDF code, which is present in xpdf, the Poppler library, a...

USN-236-1: xpdf vulnerabilities

Chris Evans discovered several integer overflows in the XPDF code, which is present in xpdf, the Poppler library, and tetex-bin. By tricking an user into opening a specially crafted PDF file, an attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the application that...

security flaw

Buffer overflow in the Gfx::doImage function in Gfx.cc for xpdf 3.00, and other products that share code such as tetex-bin and kpdf in KDE 3.2.x to 3.2.3 and 3.3.x to 3.3.2, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service application crash and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted PD...
