+ <p>
+ Poppler is a cross-platform PDF rendering library originally based on
+ Xpdf. KOffice is an integrated office suite for KDE. KWord is the
+ KOffice word processor. KPDF is a KDE-based PDF viewer included in the
+ kdegraphics package.
+ </p>

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Alin Rad Pop (Secunia Research) discovered several vulnerabilities in
+ the "Stream.cc" file of Xpdf: An integer overflow in the
+ DCTStream::reset() method and a boundary error in the
+ CCITTFaxStream::lookChar() method, both leading to heap-based buffer
+ overflows (CVE-2007-5392, CVE-2007-5393). He also discovered a boundary
+ checking error in the DCTStream::readProgressiveDataUnit() method
+ causing memory corruption (CVE-2007-4352). Note: Gentoo's version of
+ Xpdf is patched to use the Poppler library, so the update to Poppler
+ will also fix Xpdf.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ By enticing a user to view or process a specially crafted PDF file with
+ KWord or KPDF or a Poppler-based program such as Gentoo's viewers Xpdf,
+ ePDFView, and Evince or the CUPS printing system, a remote attacker
+ could cause an overflow, potentially resulting in the execution of
+ arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
