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.

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2025:4439-1 advisory.

    - CVE-2025-11896: Fixed infinite recursion leading to stack overflow due to object loop in PDF CMap     (bsc#1252337)

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

  - In Xpdf 4.05 (and earlier), a PDF object loop in a CMap, via the UseCMap entry, leads to infinite     recursion and a stack overflow. (CVE-2025-11896)

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

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2025:4434-1 advisory.
