Synopsis ========
GPdf, KPDF and KOffice all include vulnerable xpdf code to handle PDF files, making them vulnerable to execution of arbitrary code upon viewing a malicious PDF file.
Background ==========
GPdf is a Gnome-based PDF viewer. KPDF, part of the kdegraphics package, is a KDE-based PDF viewer. KOffice is an integrated office suite for KDE.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 app-office/koffice < 1.3.3-r1 >= 1.3.3-r1 2 app-text/gpdf < 2.8.0-r1 >= 2.8.0-r1 *>= 0.132-r1 3 kde-base/kdegraphics < 3.3.1-r1 >= 3.3.1-r1 *>= 3.3.0-r1 *>= 3.2.3-r1 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 3 affected packages on all of their supported architectures. -------------------------------------------------------------------
Description ===========
GPdf, KPDF and KOffice all include xpdf code to handle PDF files. xpdf is vulnerable to multiple integer overflows, as described in GLSA 200410-20.
Impact ======
An attacker could entice a user to open a specially-crafted PDF file, potentially resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the rights of the user running the affected utility.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All GPdf users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-text/gpdf-0.132-r1"
All KDE users should upgrade to the latest version of kdegraphics:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=kde-base/kdegraphics-3.3.0-r1"
All KOffice users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-office/koffice-1.3.3-r1"
