[Bug 1437649] Re: XServer crashes when visiting web page containing PDF with Firefox

 

I can't reproduce this, either in a VM, or on real hardware that uses
the nouveau driver.

Are you still able to reproduce this with all current updates applied?

Title:
  XServer crashes when visiting web page containing PDF with Firefox

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When opening the following link with Firefox, the X Server crashes:

  http://www.rauchmoebel.de/fileadmin/user_upload/Prospekte_PDF/Select/Prospekt_IMPULS_D_Webseite.pdf

  As such a bug might be used for evil purposes like buffer overrun to
  execute arbitrary code, etc. this might be security relevant.
