Details

USN-496-1 fixed a vulnerability in koffice. This update provides the
corresponding updates for poppler, the library used for PDF handling in
Gnome.

Derek Noonburg discovered an integer overflow in the Xpdf function
StreamPredictor::StreamPredictor(). By importing a specially crafted PDF
file into KWord, this could be exploited to run arbitrary code with the
user’s privileges.
