SecurityFocus reports:

Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Xpdf, which can be exploited by malicious people to potentially compromise a user's system.

1) Multiple integer overflows in "SplashBitmap::SplashBitmap()" can be exploited to cause heap-based buffer overflows.

2) An integer overflow error in "ObjectStream::ObjectStream()" can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow.

3) Multiple integer overflows in "Splash::drawImage()" can be exploited to cause heap-based buffer overflows.

4) An integer overflow error in "PSOutputDev::doImageL1Sep()" can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow when converting a PDF document to a PS file.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities may allow execution of arbitrary code by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted PDF file.

Secunia Research reports:

Secunia Research has discovered some vulnerabilities in Xpdf, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

• An array indexing error within the "DCTStream::readProgressiveDataUnit()" method in xpdf/Stream.cc can be exploited to corrupt memory via a specially crafted PDF file.
• An integer overflow error within the "DCTStream::reset()" method in xpdf/Stream.cc can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted PDF file.
• A boundary error within the "CCITTFaxStream::lookChar()" method in xpdf/Stream.cc can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow by tricking a user into opening a PDF file containing a specially crafted "CCITTFaxDecode" filter.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

Secunia reports:

Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Xpdf, which can be exploited by malicious people to potentially compromise a user's system.

A boundary error exists when decoding JBIG2 symbol dictionary segments. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow and potentially execute arbitrary code.

Multiple integer overflows in the JBIG2 decoder can be exploited to potentially execute arbitrary code.

Multiple boundary errors in the JBIG2 decoder can be exploited to cause buffer overflows and potentially execute arbitrary code.

Multiple errors in the JBIG2 decoder can be exploited can be exploited to free arbitrary memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.

Multiple unspecified input validation errors in the JBIG2 decoder can be exploited to potentially execute arbitrary code.
