Hi, The following vulnerability was published for libcupsfilters/cups-filters. CVE-2025-64503[0]: | cups-filters contains backends, filters, and other software required | to get the cups printing service working on operating systems other | than macos. In cups-filters prior to 1.28.18, by crafting a PDF file | with a large `MediaBox` value, an attacker can cause CUPS-Filter | 1.x’s `pdftoraster` tool to write beyond the bounds of an array. | First, a PDF with a large `MediaBox` width value causes | `header.cupsWidth` to become large. Next, the calculation of | `bytesPerLine = (header.cupsBitsPerPixel * header.cupsWidth + 7) / | 8` overflows, resulting in a small value. Then, `lineBuf` is | allocated with the small `bytesPerLine` size. Finally, | `convertLineChunked` calls `writePixel8`, which attempts to write to | `lineBuf` outside of its buffer size (out of bounds write). In | libcupsfilters, the maintainers found the same `bytesPerLine` | multiplication without overflow check, but the provided test case | does not cause an overflow there, because the values are different. | Commit 50d94ca0f2fa6177613c97c59791bde568631865 contains a patch, | which is incorporated into cups-filters version 1.28.18. If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
