Heap-based buffer overflow in the PdfParser::ReadXRefSubsection function in base/PdfParser.cpp in PoDoFo allows attackers to have unspecified impact via vectors related to moffsets.size.
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information on vulnerable installations of PoDoFo. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within PdfEncoding::ParseToUnicode. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a memory corruption condition. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-5673.
Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor in PoDoFo v0.9.6 allows attackers to obtain sensitive information via 'IsNextToken' in the component 'src/base/PdfToenizer.cpp'.
A flaw was found in PoDoFo 0.9.7. An use-after-free in PoDoFo::PdfVecObjects::Clear() function can cause a denial of service via a crafted PDF file.
A flaw was found in PoDoFo 0.9.7. A stack-based buffer overflow in PdfEncryptMD5Base::ComputeOwnerKey function in PdfEncrypt.cpp is possible because of a improper check of the keyLength value.
