Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDKSA-2007:019
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________

Package : pdftohtml
Date : January 18, 2007
Affected: 2006.0, 2007.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

The Adobe PDF specification 1.3, as implemented by xpdf 3.0.1 patch 2,
kpdf in KDE before 3.5.5, and other products, allows remote attackers
to have an unknown impact, possibly including denial of service
(infinite loop), arbitrary code execution, or memory corruption, via a
PDF file with a (1) crafted catalog dictionary or (2) a crafted Pages
attribute that references an invalid page tree node.

The updated packages have been patched to correct this problem.
