Description:   Opened: 2008-04-08 10:04 0000
xpdf / poppler does not type-check the the "stream" object before dereferencing
a function from it, allowing for arbitrary code execution via pdf files with
embedded fonts.

We have quite some places where this needs fixing. Embargo date is April, 15
currently.

I'm waiting for some indication of how to fix this...

A patch was introduced in the 0.6.2 release, and is available here:

dang, anything that can be done about bug 201448 beforehand?

------- Comment #4 From Robert Buchholz 2008-04-10 22:19:36 0000 -------
As it seems, neither KPDF nor TeX are affected, because both had the
cairo-related code paths removed.

------- Comment #5 From Daniel Gryniewicz 2008-04-10 23:05:13 0000 -------
I'll take a look.  I don't have anything with qt, so it will take a bit.

------- Comment #6 From Daniel Gryniewicz 2008-04-11 00:23:57 0000 -------
Okay, bug 201448 is fixed.

------- Comment #7 From Jeroen Roovers 2008-04-12 13:41:44 0000 -------
Probably a good idea to test and mark app-text/poppler-bindings-0.6.3 stable in
the same go.

------- Comment #8 From Jeroen Roovers 2008-04-12 14:01:06 0000 -------
Stable for HPPA:
   =app-text/poppler-0.6.3
   =app-text/poppler-bindings-0.6.3

Anything else? :)
