NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream poppler-qt package and not the poppler-qt package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

A heap-based buffer underwrite exists in ImageStream::getLine() located at Stream.cc in Poppler 0.74.0 that can (for example) be triggered by sending a crafted PDF file to the pdfimages binary. It allows an attacker to cause Denial of Service (Segmentation fault) or possibly have unspecified other impact.
