Maurycy Prodeus found an integer overflow vulnerability in the way various PDF viewers processed PDF files. An attacker could create a malicious PDF file that could cause tetex to crash and possibly execute arbitrary code open a user opening the file. In addition, tetex contains an embedded copy of the GD library which suffers from a number of bugs which potentially lead to denial of service and possibly other issues. Integer overflow in gdImageCreateTrueColor function in the GD Graphics Library (libgd) before 2.0.35 allows user-assisted remote attackers to have unspecified remote attack vectors and impact. (CVE-2007-3472) The gdImageCreateXbm function in the GD Graphics Library (libgd) before 2.0.35 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via unspecified vectors involving a gdImageCreate failure. (CVE-2007-3473) Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the GIF reader in the GD Graphics Library (libgd) before 2.0.35 allow user-assisted remote attackers to have unspecified attack vectors and impact. (CVE-2007-3474) The GD Graphics Library (libgd) before 2.0.35 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a GIF image that has no global color map. (CVE-2007-3475) Array index error in gd_gif_in.c in the GD Graphics Library (libgd) before 2.0.35 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash and heap corruption) via large color index values in crafted image data, which results in a segmentation fault. (CVE-2007-3476) The (a) imagearc and (b) imagefilledarc functions in GD Graphics Library (libgd) before 2.0.35 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a large (1) start or (2) end angle degree value. (CVE-2007-3477) Race condition in gdImageStringFTEx (gdft_draw_bitmap) in gdft.c in the GD Graphics Library (libgd) before 2.0.35 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via unspecified vectors, possibly involving truetype font (TTF) support. (CVE-2007-3478) Updated packages have been patched to prevent these issues.
