Buffer overflow in the Gfx::doImage function in Gfx.cc for xpdf 3.00, and other products that share code such as tetex-bin and kpdf in KDE 3.2.x to 3.2.3 and 3.3.x to 3.3.2, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF file that causes the boundaries of a maskColors array to be exceeded.

Security readout for executives and security teams

A malicious PDF can crash vulnerable xpdf-derived PDF readers and may allow code execution. The issue is old, but it matters where legacy Linux desktops, servers, or document-processing pipelines still use xpdf 3.00, tetex-bin, or affected KDE kpdf builds. Exposure is most likely in legacy Linux distributions, old KDE desktop systems, or automated PDF conversion/rendering workflows using vulnerable xpdf-derived code. Modern supported systems are less likely affected unless they retain obsolete packages. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item with high impact if vulnerable software processes external PDFs. Prioritize internet-facing or automated document workflows first, then older desktops and archived systems. Mitigation focus: Identify systems running xpdf 3.00, affected kpdf, tetex-bin, or shared xpdf code.; Apply updates or mitigations from the relevant vendor advisory for the installed distribution.; Retire unsupported PDF tools and replace them with maintained packages..
