58 KPDF includes code from xpdf that is vulnerable to an integer overflow
59 in the StreamPredictor::StreamPredictor() function.
60 </p>
61 </description>
62 <impact type="normal">
63 <p>
64 A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted PDF
65 file in KWord or KPDF that would exploit the integer overflow to cause
66 a stack-based buffer overflow in the StreamPredictor::getNextLine()
67 function, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with
68 the privileges of the user running the application.

71 <workaround>
72 <p>
73 There is no known workaround at this time.

78 All KOffice users should upgrade to the latest version:
