Medium: poppler

Issue Overview:

An issue was discovered in Poppler 0.74.0. There is a heap-based buffer over-read in the function PSOutputDev::checkPageSlice at PSOutputDev.cc. (CVE-2019-10871)

Poppler before 0.66.0 has an integer overflow in Parser::makeStream in Parser.cc.(CVE-2018-21009)

The JPXStream::init function in Poppler 0.78.0 and earlier doesn’t check for negative values of stream length, leading to an Integer Overflow, thereby making it possible to allocate a large memory chunk on the heap, with a size controlled by an attacker, as demonstrated by pdftocairo. (CVE-2019-9959)

In Poppler through 0.76.1, there is a heap-based buffer over-read in JPXStream::init in JPEG2000Stream.cc via data with inconsistent heights or widths. (CVE-2019-12293)
