CentOS Errata and Security Advisory CESA-2007:0735

Xpdf is an X Window System-based viewer for Portable Document Format (PDF)
files.

Maurycy Prodeus discovered an integer overflow flaw in the processing
of PDF files. An attacker could create a malicious PDF file that would
cause Xpdf to crash or potentially execute arbitrary code when opened.
(CVE-2007-3387)

All users of Xpdf should upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to resolve this issue.
