CWE-119  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade poppler to version 0.24.4 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-Bounds. The JBIG2Stream::readSegments method in JBIG2Stream.cc in Poppler before 0.24.5 does not use the correct specifier within a format string, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault and application crash) via a crafted PDF file.
