It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-2971 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-2024-2971/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-2971/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-2971","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-2971/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-2971","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jvwm-5xhx-5mqp","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-2971"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PDF viewer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can trigger an out-of-bounds array write in Xpdf via a malicious PDF, potentially leading to code execution or application crash.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GandC","cpe":[{"product":"xpdf","vendor":"xpdfreader"}],"cvss":{"score":2.9,"severity":"low","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"Out-of-bounds array write in Xpdf 4.05 and earlier, triggered by negative object number in indirect reference in the input PDF file.","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":"Out-of-bounds array access due to negative object numbers in indirect references in Xpdf 4.05","id":"CVE-2024-2971","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"xpdfreader:xpdf","products":["xpdfreader:xpdf"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Floating Chat Widget \u003c 3.1.9 - Editor+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2024-2972"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"News Wall \u003c= 1.1.0 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to Plugin Settings Update","id":"CVE-2024-2970"},"products":["Xpdf"],"published":"2024-03-26","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-38928","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-09-21"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-38222","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-08-15"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-33108","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-06-28"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-30524","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-09"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-24996","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-03"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-24999","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-03"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-9877","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-03-19"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["Xpdf"]},"summary":"An attacker can trigger an out-of-bounds array write in Xpdf via a malicious PDF, potentially leading to code execution or application crash.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-2971/"}
