  <description>
    <p>
    GPdf, KPDF and KOffice all include xpdf code to handle PDF files. xpdf is
    vulnerable to multiple integer overflows, as described in GLSA 200410-20.

  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    An attacker could entice a user to open a specially-crafted PDF file,
    potentially resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the rights of the
    user running the affected utility.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All GPdf users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-text/gpdf-0.132-r2"</code>
    <p>
    All KDE users should upgrade to the latest version of kdegraphics:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=kde-base/kdegraphics-3.3.0-r2"</code>
    <p>
    All KOffice users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-office/koffice-1.3.3-r2"</code>
