| Problem Description |
Kees Cook of Ubuntu security found a flaw in how poppler prior
to version 0.6 displayed malformed fonts embedded in PDF files.
An attacker could create a malicious PDF file that would cause
applications using poppler to crash, or possibly execute arbitrary
code when opened (CVE-2008-1693).
The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
