CVE-2019-13286
It might allow an attacker to cause Information Disclosure.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.14%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
In Xpdf 4.01.01, there is a heap-based buffer over-read in the function JBIG2Stream::readTextRegionSeg() located at JBIG2Stream.cc. It can, for example, be triggered by sending a crafted PDF document to the pdftoppm tool. It might allow an attacker to cause Information Disclosure.
