Discussion

Poppler CVE-2013-1790 Memory Corruption Vulnerability

Poppler is prone to a memory-corruption vulnerability.

Successfully exploiting this issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the affected application. Failed exploits may result in denial-of-service conditions.

Note: These issues were previously discussed in BID 58198 (Poppler Multiple Denial of Service and Memory Corruption Vulnerabilities), but have been moved to their own record to better document them.

Poppler versions prior to 0.22.1 are vulnerable.
