Descriptions
Heap-based buffer overflow in the ensure_solid_xref function in pdf/pdf-xref.c in Artifex MuPDF 1.12.0 allows a remote attacker to potentially execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF file, because xref subsection object numbers are unrestricted.
Desbordamiento de búfer basado en memoria dinámica (heap) en la función ensure_solid_xref en pdf/pdf-xref.c en Artifex MuPDF 1.12.0 permite que un atacante remoto pueda ejecutar código arbitrario mediante un archivo PDF manipulado. Esto se debe a que los números de objeto de subsección xref no están restringidos.
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in MuPDF, the worst of which could allow the remote execution of arbitrary code. Versions less than 1.13.0 are affected.
