Description
The issue involves multiple vulnerabilities in various packages of SUSE Linux Enterprise and Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating systems, which can lead to disruption of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. These vulnerabilities can be exploited remotely. Specifically, an array index error in the DCTStream::readProgressiveDataUnit method in Xpdf 3.02pl1, as used in poppler, teTeX, KDE, KOffice, CUPS, and other products, allows remote attackers to trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF file.
Recommendations
As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the
DCTStream::readProgressiveDataUnit method in Xpdf until a patch is available.
Restrict access to the vulnerable packages to minimize the risk of exploitation.
Avoid using the affected packages until the issue is resolved.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.Buffer Overflow
