In PoDoFo 0.9.5, there is an integer overflow in the PdfXRefStreamParserObject::ParseStream function (base/PdfXRefStreamParserObject.cpp). Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial-of-service via a crafted pdf file.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - In PoDoFo 0.9.5, there is an integer overflow in the PdfXRefStreamParserObject::ParseStream function     (base/PdfXRefStreamParserObject.cpp). Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a     denial-of-service via a crafted pdf file. (CVE-2018-5295)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

This update for podofo fixes the following issues :
