word processor. KPDF is a KDE-based PDF viewer included in the
kdegraphics package.

<description>
<p>
KPDF includes code from xpdf that is vulnerable to an integer overflow
in the StreamPredictor::StreamPredictor() function.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted PDF
file in KWord or KPDF that would exploit the integer overflow to cause
a stack-based buffer overflow in the StreamPredictor::getNextLine()
function, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with
the privileges of the user running the application.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All KOffice users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-office/koffice-1.6.3-r1&quot;</code>
<p>
All KWord users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-office/kword-1.6.3-r1&quot;</code>
<p>
All KDE Graphics Libraries users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=kde-base/kdegraphics-3.5.7-r1&quot;</code>
<p>
All KPDF users should upgrade to the latest version:
