Descriptions

Artifex MuPDF 1.11 allows attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted .xps file, related to "Data from Faulting Address controls Branch Selection starting at mupdf+0x000000000016aa61" on Windows. This occurs because xps_load_links_in_glyphs in xps/xps-link.c does not verify that an xps font could be loaded.

La versión 1.11 de Artifex MuPDF permite que los atacantes provoquen una denegación de servicio o, posiblemente, otro impacto sin especificar mediante un archivo .xps manipulado. Esta vulnerabilidad está relacionada con "Data from Faulting Address controls Branch Selection starting at mupdf+0x000000000016aa61" en Windows. Esto ocurre porque xps_load_links_in_glyphs en xps/xps-link.c no verifica que se puede cargar una fuente xps.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in MuPDF, a PDF file viewer, which may result in denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code.
