Package : mupdf
CVE ID : CVE-2017-14685 CVE-2017-14686 CVE-2017-14687 CVE-2017-15587
Debian Bug : 877379 879055
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in MuPDF, a PDF file viewer, which
may result in denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code.
CVE-2017-14685, CVE-2017-14686, and CVE-2017-14687
WangLin discovered that a crafted .xps file can crash MuPDF and
potentially execute arbitrary code in several ways, since the
application makes unchecked assumptions on the entry format.
CVE-2017-15587
Terry Chia and Jeremy Heng discovered an integer overflow that can
cause arbitrary code execution via a crafted .pdf file.
For the stable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.9a+ds1-4+deb9u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your mupdf packages.
