Heap-based buffer overflow in Xpdf 3.02pl2 and earlier, CUPS 1.3.9, and probably other products, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a PDF file with crafted JBIG2 symbol dictionary segments.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201310-03 (Poppler: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Poppler. Please review       the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted PDF       file, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the       privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

KOffice in Ubuntu 9.04 uses a very old version of Xpdf to import PDFs into KWord. Upstream KDE no longer supports PDF import in KOffice and as a result it was dropped in Ubuntu 9.10. While an attempt was made to fix the above issues, the maintenance burden for supporting this very old version of Xpdf outweighed its utility, and PDF import is now also disabled in Ubuntu 9.04.
