Debian Security Advisory DSA 1350-1                    security@debian.org

Package        : tetex-bin
Vulnerability  : integer overflow
Problem type   : local (remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CVE-2007-3387

It was discovered that an integer overflow in the xpdf PDF viewer may lead
to the execution of arbitrary code if a malformed PDF file is opened.

tetex-bin includes a copy of the xpdf code and required an update as
well.

For the oldstable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 2.0.2-30sarge5.

The package from the stable distribution (etch) links dynamically
against libpoppler and doesn't require a separate update.

The package from the unstable distribution (sid) links dynamically
against libpoppler and doesn't require a separate update.

We recommend that you upgrade your tetex-bin packages.


Upgrade Instructions
- - --------------------

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given at the end of this advisory:

apt-get update
        will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
        will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
