CVE-2013-7296

Publication date 26 January 2014

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

The JBIG2Stream::readSegments method in JBIG2Stream.cc in Poppler before 0.24.5 does not use the correct specifier within a format string, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault and application crash) via a crafted PDF file.
