Divide by Zero
AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L

An excessively large PDF page size (found in fuzz testing, unlikely in normal PDF files) can result in a divide-by-zero in Xpdf's text extraction code.

This is related to CVE-2022-30524, but the problem here is caused by a very large page size, rather than by a very large character coordinate.

Integer Overflow
AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Xpdf prior to version 4.04 contains an integer overflow in the JBIG2 decoder (JBIG2Stream::readTextRegionSeg() in JBIG2Stream.cc). Processing a specially crafted PDF file or JBIG2 image could lead to a crash or the execution of arbitrary code. This is similar to the vulnerability described by CVE-2021-30860 (Apple CoreGraphics).
