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-2019-9877 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Xpdfreader Xpdf. 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-2019-9877/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-9877/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-9877","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-9877/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-9877","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3pv6-grgx-9mv9"],"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":"An attacker can cause a denial of service via a crafted PDF file due to invalid memory access in Xpdf's text processing.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"xpdf","vendor":"xpdfreader"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"},{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"}],"description":"There is an invalid memory access vulnerability in the function TextPage::findGaps() located at TextOutputDev.c in Xpdf 4.01, which can (for example) be triggered by sending a crafted pdf file to the pdftops binary.
