Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-19881)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

In Artifex MuPDF 1.14.0, svg/svg-run.c allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (recursive calls followed by a fitz/xml.c fz_xml_att crash from excessive stack consumption) via a crafted svg file, as demonstrated by mupdf-gl.


2) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-19882)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error. A remote attacker can trigger denial of service conditions via a crafted svg file, as demonstrated by mupdf-gl.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-6130)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Artifex MuPDF 1.14.0 has a SEGV in the function fz_load_page of the fitz/document.c file, as demonstrated by mutool. This is related to page-number mishandling in cbz/mucbz.c, cbz/muimg.c, and svg/svg-doc.c.


4) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-6131)

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

svg-run.c in Artifex MuPDF 1.14.0 has infinite recursion with stack consumption in svg_run_use_symbol, svg_run_element, and svg_run_use, as demonstrated by mutool.
