    Debian Bug : 524810

    kpdf, a Portable Document Format (PDF) viewer for KDE, is based on the
    xpdf program and thus suffers from similar flaws to those described in DSA-1790.

    The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the
    following problems:

    CVE-2009-0146

    Multiple buffer overflows in the JBIG2 decoder in kpdf allow
    remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a
    crafted PDF file, related to (1) JBIG2SymbolDict::setBitmap and
    (2) JBIG2Stream::readSymbolDictSeg.

    CVE-2009-0147

    Multiple integer overflows in the JBIG2 decoder in kpdf allow
    remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a
    crafted PDF file, related to (1) JBIG2Stream::readSymbolDictSeg,
    (2) JBIG2Stream::readSymbolDictSeg, and (3)
    JBIG2Stream::readGenericBitmap.

    CVE-2009-0165

    Integer overflow in the JBIG2 decoder in kpdf has unspecified
    impact related to "g*allocn."

    CVE-2009-0166

    The JBIG2 decoder in kpdf allows remote attackers to cause a
    denial of service (crash) via a crafted PDF file that triggers a
    free of uninitialized memory.

    CVE-2009-0799

    The JBIG2 decoder in kpdf allows remote attackers to cause a
    denial of service (crash) via a crafted PDF file that triggers an
    out-of-bounds read.

    CVE-2009-0800

    Multiple "input validation flaws" in the JBIG2 decoder in kpdf
    allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF
    file.

    CVE-2009-1179

    Integer overflow in the JBIG2 decoder in kpdf allows remote
    attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF file.

    CVE-2009-1180

    The JBIG2 decoder in kpdf allows remote attackers to execute
    arbitrary code via a crafted PDF file that triggers a free of
    invalid data.

    CVE-2009-1181

    The JBIG2 decoder in kpdf allows remote attackers to cause a
    denial of service (crash) via a crafted PDF file that triggers a
    NULL pointer dereference.

    CVE-2009-1182

    Multiple buffer overflows in the JBIG2 MMR decoder in kpdf allow
    remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF file.

    CVE-2009-1183

    The JBIG2 MMR decoder in kpdf allows remote attackers to cause a
    denial of service (infinite loop and hang) via a crafted PDF file.


    We recommend that you upgrade your kdegraphics packages.
