VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions poppler versions prior to 0.24.2
Description The issue is a stack-based buffer overflow in the extractPages function, located in utils/pdfseparate.cc, which can be exploited by remote attackers. This can lead to a denial of service (crash) and potentially allow the execution of arbitrary code via a source filename.
