Description Paweł Hajdan, Jr. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-03-13 09:17:07 UTC
Some vulnerabilities have been discovered in t1lib, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise an application using the library.

1) A boundary error within the "token()" function in lib/t1lib/parseAFM.c can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow by tricking a user into processing a specially crafted AFM font file in an application using the library.

This is related to vulnerability #3 in:
SA42769

2) A boundary error within the "linetoken()" function in lib/t1lib/parseAFM.c can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow by tricking a user into processing a specially crafted AFM font file in an application using the library.

This is related to vulnerability #5 in:
SA42769

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 5.1.2. Other versions may also be affected.

CVE-2011-1554 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2011-1554):
  Off-by-one error in t1lib 5.1.2 and earlier, as used in Xpdf before 3.02pl6
  and other products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
  (application crash) via a PDF document containing a crafted Type 1 font that
  triggers an invalid memory read, integer overflow, and invalid pointer
  dereference, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-0764.

CVE-2011-1553 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2011-1553):
  Use-after-free vulnerability in t1lib 5.1.2 and earlier, as used in Xpdf
  before 3.02pl6 and other products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial
  of service (application crash) via a PDF document containing a crafted Type
  1 font that triggers an invalid memory write, a different vulnerability than
  CVE-2011-0764.

CVE-2011-1552 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2011-1552):
  t1lib 5.1.2 and earlier, as used in Xpdf before 3.02pl6 and other products,
  reads from invalid memory locations, which allows remote attackers to cause
  a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted Type 1 font in a PDF
  document, a different vulnerability than CVE-2011-0764.

CVE-2011-0764 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2011-0764):
  t1lib 5.1.2 and earlier, as used in Xpdf before 3.02pl6 and other products,
  uses an invalid pointer in conjunction with a dereference operation, which
  allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted Type 1 font
  in a PDF document, as demonstrated by testz.2184122398.pdf.

CVE-2011-0433 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2011-0433):
  Heap-based buffer overflow in the linetoken function in afmparse.c in t1lib,
  as used in teTeX 3.0.x, GNOME evince, and possibly other products, allows
  remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute
  arbitrary code via a DVI file containing a crafted Adobe Font Metrics (AFM)
  file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-2642.
Comment 3 GLSAMaker/CVETool Bot gentoo-dev 2012-11-20 01:04:30 UTC
CVE-2011-5244 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2011-5244):
  Multiple off-by-one errors in the (1) token and (2) linetoken functions in
  backend/dvi/mdvi-lib/afmparse.c in t1lib, as used in teTeX 3.0.x, GNOME
  evince, and possibly other products, allow remote attackers to cause a
  denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a DVI file
  containing a crafted Adobe Font Metrics (AFM) file, different
  vulnerabilities than CVE-2010-2642 and CVE-2011-0433.
