<p>
Xpdf and GPdf are PDF file viewers that run under the X Window System.
Poppler is a PDF rendering library based on Xpdf code. The Common UNIX
Printing System (CUPS) is a cross-platform print spooler. It makes use
of Xpdf code to handle PDF files.

<description>
<p>
infamous41md discovered that several Xpdf functions lack sufficient
boundary checking, resulting in multiple exploitable buffer overflows.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>
An attacker could entice a user to open a specially-crafted PDF file
which would trigger an overflow, potentially resulting in execution of
arbitrary code with the rights of the user running Xpdf, CUPS, GPdf or
Poppler.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All Xpdf users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-text/xpdf-3.01-r2&quot;</code>
<p>
All GPdf users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-text/gpdf-2.10.0-r2&quot;</code>
<p>
All Poppler users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose app-text/poppler</code>
<p>
All CUPS users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=net-print/cups-1.1.23-r3&quot;</code>
