NewStart CGSL MAIN 7.02 : xpdf Multiple Vulnerabilities (NS-SA-2026-0109)

low Nessus Plugin ID 343585

Synopsis

The remote NewStart CGSL host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 7.02, has xpdf packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- In Xpdf 4.05 (and earlier), invalid header info in a DCT (JPEG) stream can lead to an uninitialized variable in the DCT decoder. The proof-of-concept PDF file causes a segfault attempting to read from an invalid address. (CVE-2024-7868)

- Out-of-bounds array write in Xpdf 4.05 and earlier, triggered by negative object number in indirect reference in the input PDF file. (CVE-2024-2971)

- In Xpdf 4.05 (and earlier), a PDF object loop in an object stream leads to infinite recursion and a stack overflow. (CVE-2024-3247)

- Out-of-bounds array write in Xpdf 4.05 and earlier, triggered by long Unicode sequence in ActualText.
(CVE-2024-3900)

- Out-of-bounds array write in Xpdf 4.05 and earlier, triggered by an invalid character code in a Type 1 font. The root problem was a bounds check that was being optimized away by modern compilers.
(CVE-2024-4141)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade the vulnerable CGSL xpdf packages. Note that updated packages may not be available yet. Please contact ZTE for more information.
