Fedora has issued an advisory on July 5: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/IQBAHQQF2P7E6PL5STST3TGH7VPVXKKQ/ Mageia 7 is also affected.
Whiteboard: (none) => MGA7TOO
Suggested advisory: ======================== The updated packages fix a security vulnerability: A stack-based buffer over-read exists in FoFiTrueType::dumpString in fofi/FoFiTrueType.cc in Xpdf 4.01.01. It can, for example, be triggered by sending crafted TrueType data in a PDF document to the pdftops tool. It might allow an attacker to cause Denial of Service or leak memory data into dump content.
