This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. The Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) is a print spooler. During a source code audit, Chris Evans discovered a number of integer overflow bugs that affect Xpdf. CUPS contained a copy of the Xpdf code used for parsing PDF files and was therefore affected by these bugs. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) assigned the name CVE-2004-0888 to this issue, and Red Hat released erratum RHSA-2004:543 with updated packages. It was found that the patch used to correct this issue was not sufficient and did not fully protect CUPS running on 64-bit architectures.

An attacker could construct a carefully crafted PDF file that could cause CUPS to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code when opened. This issue was assigned the name CVE-2004-0888 by The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org). Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 contained a fix for this issue, but it was found to be incomplete and left 64-bit architectures vulnerable. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2005-0206 to this issue. A buffer overflow flaw was found in the Gfx::doImage function of Xpdf which also affects the CUPS pdftops filter due to a shared codebase.
