In Xpdf 4.01.01, the Parser::getObj() function in Parser.cc may cause
infinite recursion via a crafted file. A remote attacker can leverage this
for a DoS attack. This is similar to CVE-2018-16646.

Notes

Author	Note
jdstrand	xpdf in koffice is 2.0
mdeslaur	doesn’t seem to reproduce in poppler
ebarretto	since 0.5.12-1 libextractor does not use xpdf anymore. xpdf in Debian uses poppler, which is not affected or fixed
