It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-16088 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Glyphandcog Xpdfreader. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-16088/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-16088/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-16088","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-16088/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-16088","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2j59-jx2x-g8vw","UBUNTU-CVE-2019-16088"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PDF rendering library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A stack overflow in Xpdf causes a segmentation fault, allowing attackers to crash applications processing malicious PDF files.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"xpdfreader","vendor":"glyphandcog"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-674","name":"Uncontrolled Recursion"}],"description":"Xpdf 3.04 has a SIGSEGV in XRef::fetch in XRef.cc after many recursive calls to Catalog::countPageTree in Catalog.cc.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-16088","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"glyphandcog:xpdfreader","products":["glyphandcog:xpdfreader"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-16089"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-16072"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-09-06","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-24106","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-08-30"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-24107","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-08-30"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-16115","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-09-08"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-14288","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-27"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-13289","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-04"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-9587","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-03-06"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-9588","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-03-06"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"A stack overflow in Xpdf causes a segmentation fault, allowing attackers to crash applications processing malicious PDF files.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-16088/"}
