CVE-2017-2818 https://www.talosintelligence.com/vulnerability_reports/TALOS-2017-0319 An exploitable heap overflow vulnerability exists in the image rendering functionality of Poppler-0.53.0. A specifically crafted PDF can cause an overly large number of color components during image rendering, resulting in heap corruption. An attacker controlled PDF file can be used to trigger this vulnerability.
as we build all popplers with libjpeg we are not affected by this problem in the poppler internal jpeg decoding code.
