CVE-2019-9878
Published: 21 March 2019
There is an invalid memory access in the function GfxIndexedColorSpace::mapColorToBase() located in GfxState.cc in Xpdf 4.0.0, as used in pdfalto 0.2. It can be triggered by (for example) sending a crafted pdf file to the pdftops binary. It allows an attacker to cause Denial of Service (Segmentation fault) or possibly have unspecified other impact.
Notes
| Author | Note |
|---|---|
| jdstrand | xpdf in koffice is 2.0 |
| mdeslaur | can't reproduce with poppler, no indication it is affected |
| ebarretto | since 0.5.12-1 libextractor does not use xpdf anymore. xpdf in Debian uses poppler, which is not affected or fixed |
