A reachable Object::getString assertion in Poppler 22.07.0 allows attackers to cause a denial of service due to a failure in markObject.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 9 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: reachable assertion due to a failure in markObject() (CVE-2022-37052)

  - In Poppler 22.07.0, PDFDoc::savePageAs in PDFDoc.c callows attackers to cause a denial-of-service     (application crashes with SIGABRT) by crafting a PDF file in which the xref data structure is mishandled     in getCatalog processing. Note that this vulnerability is caused by the incomplete patch of     CVE-2018-20662. (CVE-2022-37050)

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

  - An issue was discovered in freedesktop poppler version 20.12.1, allows remote attackers to cause a denial     of service (DoS) via crafted .pdf file to FoFiType1C::cvtGlyph function. (CVE-2020-36023)

  - A reachable Object::getString assertion in Poppler 22.07.0 allows attackers to cause a denial of service     due to a failure in markObject. (CVE-2022-37052)

  - An infinite recursion in Catalog::findDestInTree can cause denial of service for xpdf 4.02.
