Summary

poppler security update

Details

is a PDF rendering library.

Security Fix(es):

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in Freedesktop Poppler 25.04.0 (Document Reader Software).CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-674. The product does not properly control the amount of recursion that takes place, consuming excessive resources, such as allocated memory or the program stack.This is going to have an impact on availability.There is no information about possible countermeasures known. It may be suggested to replace the affected object with an alternative product.(CVE-2025-50420)
