Description

(Description Provided by CVE) : Unspecified vulnerability in certain versions of xpdf after 3.00, as used in various products including (a) pdfkit.framework, (b) gpdf, (c) pdftohtml, and (d) libextractor, has unknown impact and user-assisted attack vectors, possibly involving errors in (1) gmem.c, (2) SplashXPathScanner.cc, (3) JBIG2Stream.cc, (4) JPXStream.cc, and/or (5) Stream.cc. NOTE: this description is based on Debian advisory DSA 979, which is based on changes that were made after other vulnerabilities such as CVE-2006-0301 and CVE-2005-3624 through CVE-2005-3628 were fixed. Some of these newer fixes appear to be security-relevant, although it is not clear if they fix specific issues or are defensive in nature.

Classification

Unknown or Incomplete

Technical

Due to a lack of published details, it is not clear if the issues found by Derek Noonburg are new/different than previously reported issues. Given the timing of the advisories and the promptness of the Debian security team, it is likely that some (if not all) of the issues found are new, and not previously disclosed.
