A stack-based buffer over-read exists in FoFiTrueType::dumpString in fofi/FoFiTrueType.cc in Xpdf 4.01.01. It can, for example, be triggered by sending crafted TrueType data in a PDF document to the pdftops tool. It might allow an attacker to cause Denial of Service or leak memory data into dump content.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - poppler: heap buffer overflow in ExponentialFunction (CVE-2015-8868)

  - poppler: recursive function call in JBIG2Stream::readGenericBitmap() in JBIG2Stream.cc causing denial of     service (CVE-2019-9543)

  - freedesktop.org libpoppler 0.60.1 fails to validate boundaries in TextPool::addWord, leading to overflow     in subsequent calculations. (CVE-2017-1000456)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

This plugin has been deprecated as it does not adhere to established standards for this style of check.

According to the versions of the poppler packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Poppler 0.74.0 has a heap-based buffer over-read in the     CairoRescaleBox.cc downsample_row_box_filter     function.(CVE-2019-9631)

  - In Poppler through 0.76.1, there is a heap-based buffer     over-read in JPXStream::init in JPEG2000Stream.cc via     data with inconsistent heights or     widths.(CVE-2019-12293)

  - A stack-based buffer over-read exists in     FoFiTrueType::dumpString in fofi/FoFiTrueType.cc in     Xpdf 4.01.01. It can, for example, be triggered by     sending crafted TrueType data in a PDF document to the     pdftops tool. It might allow an attacker to cause     Denial of Service or leak memory data into dump     content.(CVE-2019-12360)

  - Poppler before 0.66.0 has an integer overflow in     Parser::makeStream in Parser.cc.(CVE-2018-21009)

  - In Poppler 0.59.0, a NULL Pointer Dereference exists in     the SplashOutputDev::type3D0() function in     SplashOutputDev.cc via a crafted PDF     document.(CVE-2017-14927)

  - The function GfxImageColorMap::getGray in GfxState.cc     in Poppler 0.54.0 allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (stack-based buffer over-read and     application crash) via a crafted PDF document, related     to missing color-map validation in     ImageOutputDev.cc.(CVE-2017-9865)

Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Several vulnerabilities have been found in the poppler PDF rendering library, which could result in denial of service or possibly other unspecified impact when processing malformed or maliciously crafted files.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 0.26.5-2+deb8u10.

We recommend that you upgrade your poppler packages.
