Synopsis ========
Multiple stack-based buffer overflows have been reported in PDFlib.
Background ==========
PDFlib is a library for generating PDF on the fly.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 media-libs/pdflib < 7.0.2_p8 >= 7.0.2_p8
Description ===========
poplix reported multiple boundary errors in the pdc_fsearch_fopen() function when processing overly long filenames.
Impact ======
A remote attacker could send specially crafted content to a vulnerable application using PDFlib, possibly resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All PDFlib users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/pdflib-7.0.2_p8"
