TSSA-2011-01 xpdf : multiple vulnerabilities allow remote code execution

    Xpdf runs under the X Window System on UNIX, VMS, and OS/2.  The non-X
    components (pdftops, pdftotext, etc.) also run on Win32 systems and
    should run on pretty much any system with a decent C++ compiler.

    Xpdf is designed to be small and efficient.  It can use Type 1 or
    TrueType fonts.

Debian Bug     : 652996

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in t1lib, a Postscript Type 1
font rasterizer library, some of which might lead to code execution
through the opening of files embedding bad fonts.

CVE-2010-2642
        A heap-based buffer overflow in the AFM font metrics parser

Xpdf - Integer overflow which causes heap overflow and NULL pointer derefernce.

Xpdf is an open-source viewer for Portable Document Format (PDF) files. Xpdf project also includes
a PDF text extractor, PDF-to-PostScript converter, and various other utilities. Xpdf runs under
the X Window System on UNIX, VMS, and OS/2. The non-X components (pdftops, pdftotext, etc.) also
run on Win32 systems and should run on pretty much any system with a decent C++ compiler.
Xpdf is designed to be small and efficient. It can use Type 1, TrueType, or standard X fonts.

Aspect9: Internet Explorer 8.0 Beta 2 Anti-XSS Filter Vulnerabilities

browser includes new security improvements such as a Cross Site Scripting
(XSS) filter. This version also includes a new object that safely allows
transferring  data across domains, allowing them to interact with each other.

The Anti-XSS filter has been found to have some security holes in the
current implementation. Microsoft decided to filter "Type 1 XSS" which is
free  text send to the server being reflected to the user and therefore
injecting HTML code into the website's page. They chose not to handle
certain situations such as injection into a JavaScript tag space, which
would be extremely difficult to filter. The software giant also chose not
to filter injection into HTTP headers, which will drive hackers to focus on

    Several vulnerabilities were identified from CMC-TC PU II web
    interface. These include XSS Type I, XSS Type II, weak session
    management and insecure default configuration.

    XSS Type 1:
    -----------
    Web application fails to validate and/or htmlencode user input when
    handling erroneous requests. This allows attacker to inject HTML and
    client-side scripts to victim's browser by creating suitable links.

 The Gfx::getPos function in the PDF parser in xpdf before 3.02pl5,
 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash)
 via unknown vectors that trigger an uninitialized pointer dereference
 (CVE-2010-3702).
 
 The FoFiType1::parse function in fofi/FoFiType1.cc in the PDF parser
 in xpdf before 3.02pl5, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a
 denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a PDF
 file with a crafted Type1 font that contains a negative array index,
 which bypasses input validation and which triggers memory corruption
 (CVE-2010-3704).

iDefense Security Advisory 07.31.08: Apple Mac OS X CoreGraphics PDF Type1 Font Integer Overflow Vulnerability

Remote exploitation of an integer overflow vulnerability in Apple Inc.'s
Mac OS X could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the currently logged in user.

This vulnerability exists due to the way PDF files containing Type 1
fonts are handled. When processing a font with an overly large length,
integer overflow could occur. This issue leads to heap corruption which
can allow for arbitrary code execution.
