Decoder in the OpenSolaris GNOME PDF Viewer may Lead to Execution of
Arbitrary Code
Bug ID: 6827182
Product:
OpenSolaris
Date of Resolved Release: 13-Oct-2009
SA Document Body
Multiple security vulnerabilities in the JBIG2 decoding feature:
1. Impact
Multiple security vulnerabilities in the JBIG2 decoding feature in the
Poppler PDF Rendering Library (libpoppler) may allow a local or remote
unprivileged user to cause the OpenSolaris GNOME PDF Viewer (Evince)
to crash and potentially execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
the user running the application, when the user has loaded a specially
crafted PDF file.

CVE-2009-0146, CVE-2009-0147 and CVE-2009-0166 to our attention.
2. Contributing Factors
These issues can occur in the following releases:
SPARC Platform
* OpenSolaris based upon builds snv_01 through snv_113
x86 Platform
* OpenSolaris based upon builds snv_01 through snv_113
Note 1: Solaris 8, 9, and 10 are not affected by this issue.
Note 2 : OpenSolaris distributions may include additional bug fixes
above and beyond the build from which it was derived. To determine
the base build of OpenSolaris, the following command can be used:
$ uname -v
snv_86
3. Symptoms
Should the described issues occur, evince(1) may crash and potentially
create a core dump depending on the system configuration. There are no
predictable symptoms to indicate that these issues have been exploited
to execute arbitrary code.
4. Workaround
To workaround the described issues, do not load PDF files from
untrusted sources.
5. Resolution
These issues are addressed in the following releases:
SPARC Platform
* OpenSolaris based upon builds snv_114 or later
x86 Platform
* OpenSolaris based upon builds snv_114 or later
