Affected: Poppler

An exploitable integer overflow vulnerability exists in the JPEG 2000 image parsing functionality of freedesktop.org Poppler 0.53.0. A specially crafted PDF file can lead to an integer overflow causing out of bounds memory overwrite on the heap resulting in potential arbitrary code execution. To trigger this vulnerability, a victim must open the malicious PDF in an application using this library.

Affected: Ubuntu:14.04:LTS: poppler, Ubuntu:16.04:LTS: poppler

Aleksandar Nikolic discovered that poppler incorrectly handled JPEG 2000 images. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a crafted PDF file, an attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code with privileges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2017-2820)

Jiaqi Peng discovered that the poppler pdfunite tool incorrectly parsed certain malformed PDF documents. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a crafted PDF file, an attacker could cause poppler to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2017-7511)

It was discovered that the poppler pdfunite tool incorrectly parsed certain malformed PDF documents. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a crafted PDF file, an attacker could cause poppler to hang, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2017-7515)

It was discovered that poppler incorrectly handled JPEG 2000 images. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a crafted PDF file, an attacker could cause cause poppler to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2017-9083)

It was discovered that poppler incorrectly handled memory when processing PDF documents. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a crafted PDF file, an attacker could cause poppler to consume resources, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2017-9406, CVE-2017-9408)
