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

  - The PoDoFo::PdfXObject::PdfXObject function in PdfXObject.cpp in PoDoFo 0.9.5 allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via a crafted file. (CVE-2017-6848)

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

Several heap-based buffer overflows and NULL pointer dereferences have been discovered in libpodofo, a library for manipulating PDF files, that allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or other unspecified impact via a crafted PDF document.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 0.9.0-1.1+deb7u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your libpodofo packages.
