Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2021.0112
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2021-0112)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'xpdf' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0112 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'xpdf' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0112 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
In Xpdf 4.02, SplashOutputDev::endType3Char(GfxState *state)
SplashOutputDev.cc:3079 is trying to use the freed `t3GlyphStack->cache`, which
causes an `heap-use-after-free` problem. The codes of a previous fix for nested
Type 3 characters wasn't correctly handling the case where a Type 3 char
referred to another char in the same Type 3 font (CVE-2020-25725).

Xpdf 4.02 allows stack consumption because of an incorrect subroutine reference
in a Type 1C font charstring, related to the FoFiType1C::getOp() function
(CVE-2020-35376).

Affected Software/OS:
'xpdf' package(s) on Mageia 7, Mageia 8.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
