Summary

Red Hat Security Advisory: gpdf security update

Notes

Topic

An updated gpdf package that fixes a security issue is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4. This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

Details

gpdf is a GNOME-based viewer for Portable Document Format (PDF) files. Kees Cook discovered a flaw in the way gpdf displayed malformed fonts embedded in PDF files. An attacker could create a malicious PDF file that would cause gpdf to crash, or, potentially, execute arbitrary code when opened. (CVE-2008-1693) Users of gpdf are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which contains a backported patch to resolve this issue.

Summary

The CairoFont::create function in CairoFontEngine.cc in Poppler, possibly before 0.8.0, as used in Xpdf, Evince, ePDFview, KWord, and other applications, does not properly handle embedded fonts in PDF files, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted font object, related to dereferencing a function pointer associated with the type of this font object.
