Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'tetex-bin, xpdf' package(s) announced via the USN-48-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:

could result in abnormal program termination or the execution of
attacker supplied program code with the user's privileges.

The tetex-bin package contains the affected xpdf code to generate PDF
output and process included PDF files, thus is vulnerable as well.
