Details
Jon Larimer discovered that Evince’s font parsers incorrectly handled
certain buffer lengths when rendering a DVI file. By tricking a user into
opening or previewing a DVI file that uses a specially crafted font file,
an attacker could crash evince or execute arbitrary code with the user’s
privileges.
In the default installation of Ubuntu 9.10 and later, attackers would be
isolated by the Evince AppArmor profile.
