NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libpoppler73 package and not the libpoppler73 package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.2 relevant fixed versions and status.

Poppler through 0.62 contains an out of bounds read vulnerability due to an incorrect memory access that is not mapped in its memory space, as demonstrated by pdfunite. This can result in memory corruption and denial of service. This may be exploitable when a victim opens a specially crafted PDF file.
