Descriptions

pdf/pdf-write.c in Artifex MuPDF before 1.12.0 mishandles certain length changes when a repair operation occurs during a clean operation, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted PDF document.

pdf/pdf-write.c en Artifex MuPDF en versiones anteriores a la 1.12.0 gestiona de manera incorrecta determinados cambios de longitud cuando tiene lugar una operación de reparación durante una operación de limpieza. Esto permite que atacantes remotos provoquen una denegación de servicio (desbordamiento de búfer y cierre inesperado de la aplicación) o, posiblemente, causen otros impactos mediante un documento PDF manipulado.
