NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream mupdf package and not the mupdf package as distributed by Ubuntu.

Artifex MuPDF 1.11 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via a crafted .xps file, related to a "User Mode Write AV near NULL starting at wow64!Wow64NotifyDebugger+0x000000000000001d" on Windows. This occurs because read_zip_dir_imp in fitz/unzip.c does not check whether size fields in a ZIP entry are negative numbers.
