CVE-2013-7296
The JBIG2Stream::readSegments method in JBIG2Stream.cc in Poppler before 0.24.5 does not use the correct specifier within a format string, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault and application crash)…
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.23%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
