                 Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package name:           gpdf
 Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2004:162
 Date:                   December 29th, 2004

 Affected versions:      10.0, 10.1
 ______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 iDefense reported a buffer overflow vulnerability, which affects 
 versions of xpdf <= xpdf-3.0 and several programs, like gpdf, 
 which use embedded xpdf code. An attacker could construct a malicious 
 payload file which could enable arbitrary code execution on the target 
 system.
 
 The updated packages are patched to protect against these
 vulnerabilities.
