Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2010-228 - The Gfx::getPos function in the PDF parser in xpdf before 3.02pl5, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service via unknown vectors that trigger an uninitialized pointer dereference. The FoFiType1::parse function in fofi/FoFiType1.cc in the PDF parser in xpdf before 3.02pl5, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a PDF file with a crafted Type1 font that contains a negative array index, which bypasses input validation and which triggers memory corruption.

Problem Description:

Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered and corrected in xpdf:

via unknown vectors that trigger an uninitialized pointer dereference
(CVE-2010-3702).

The FoFiType1::parse function in fofi/FoFiType1.cc in the PDF parser
in xpdf before 3.02pl5, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a
denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a PDF
file with a crafted Type1 font that contains a negative array index,
which bypasses input validation and which triggers memory corruption
(CVE-2010-3704).
