Summary     : A PDF file viewer for the X Window System.
Description : 
Xpdf is an X Window System based viewer for Portable Document Format
(PDF) files. Xpdf is a small and efficient program which uses
standard X fonts.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Updated xpdf packages that fixes a number of integer overflow security
flaws are now available.

Xpdf is an X Window System based viewer for Portable Document Format
(PDF) files.

During a source code audit, Chris Evans and others discovered a number
of integer overflow bugs that affected all versions of xpdf. An attacker
could construct a carefully crafted PDF file that could cause xpdf to
crash or possibly execute arbitrary code when opened. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the
name CAN-2004-0888 to this issue.

Users of xpdf are advised to upgrade to these errata packages, which
contains a backported patch correcting these issues.
