<define-tag description>LTS security update</define-tag>
<define-tag moreinfo>
<p>A second regression issue has been resolved in the poppler PDF rendering
shared library this time introduced with version 0.26.5-2+deb8u6 (see
DLA 1562-2).</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2018-16646">CVE-2018-16646</a>
<p>In Poppler 0.68.0, the Parser::getObj() function in Parser.cc may
cause infinite recursion via a crafted file. A remote attacker can
leverage this for a DoS attack.</p>
<p>The poppler upstream developers added two more regression fixes on top
of the original fix (upstream merge request #91). These two patches
have now been added to the poppler package in Debian jessie LTS.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>For Debian 8 <q>Jessie</q>, this problem has been fixed in version
0.26.5-2+deb8u7.</p>
<p>We recommend that you upgrade your poppler packages.</p>
<p>Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply
these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be
