Description

This security bulletin contains information about 19 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: N/A)

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

The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error when executing JavaScripts in certain PDF files. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted PDF file and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: N/A)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to crash the application.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when handling certain encrypted PDFs with abnormal encryption dictionary.. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger out-of-bounds read error and crash the application.
