RedHat: Important: gpdf security update
Summary
Summary
The gpdf package is a GNOME based viewer for Portable Document Format (PDF) files. Several flaws were discovered in gpdf. An attacker could construct a carefully crafted PDF file that could cause gpdf to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code when opened. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project assigned the names CVE-2005-3191, CVE-2005-3192, and CVE-2005-3193 to these issues. Users of gpdf should upgrade to this updated package, which contains a backported patch to resolve these issues.
