Synopsis

Description

Several issues were found in Poppler, a PDF rendering library, that could lead to denial of service or possibly other unspecified impact when processing maliciously crafted documents.

For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 0.48.0-2+deb9u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your poppler packages.
