Created attachment 111902
PDF file

Originally reported on Ubuntu Vivid as
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/1404645 using
poppler 0.28.1

Evince 3.14.1-0ubuntu1 (which uses poppler as it's renderer) prompts for
a password when opening the attached file.  Adobe Reader and Firefox
34's built-in PDF viewer can open the file.

The file has been created by a professor and is about Java programming.

Renaming the file to script.pdf and attempting to convert the file with
ghostscript 9.10 via this command:

gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=unencrypted.pdf
-c .setpdfwrite -f script.pdf

gives this warning:

**** This file uses an unknown standard security handler revision: 6
Error: /undefined in pdf_check_password
<snip>
GPL Ghostscript 9.10: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1

Ghostscript 9.15 now supports the PDF security handler revision 6 - see
http://www.ghostscript.com/doc/9.15/News.htm

Perhaps you can reuse the new ghostscript code?
