CWE-189  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Echo:latest poppler to version 0.4.4-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream poppler package and not the poppler package as distributed by Echo. See How to fix? for Echo:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

The CCITTFaxStream::CCITTFaxStream function in Stream.cc for xpdf, gpdf, kpdf, pdftohtml, poppler, teTeX, CUPS, libextractor, and others allows attackers to corrupt the heap via negative or large integers in a CCITTFaxDecode stream, which lead to integer overflows and integer underflows.
