onepager.pdf

When converting the PDFs that contain just a single image (large grayscale image, seems like a scan), pdftocairo segfaults. 
Tested on Ubuntu 14.04 x64, 
cairo 1.14.8
poppler 0.49.0

$ /usr/bin/pdftocairo -ps -level3 onepager.pdf out.ps
Segmentation fault

Yes, the file contains large image inside: PNG image data, 19833 x 28067, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced, but pdftops converts the file instantly. 

Here is the output from gdb:

(gdb) file /usr/bin/pdftocairo

Comment 1 Alex Korobkin 2017-03-06 16:17:15 UTC
Perhaps it would be more reasonable to file this bug under poppler component. If the underlying bug is in cairo lib, not pdftocairo, please route it back to cairo component?

Thank you.

This bug is in the cairo backend component of poppler, in CairoOutputDev.cc:3090.

3087       buffer = cairo_image_surface_get_data (image);
3088       stride = cairo_image_surface_get_stride (image);
3089       for (int y = 0; y < height; y++) {
3090         uint32_t *dest = (uint32_t *) (buffer + y * stride);
3091         getRow(y, dest);
3092       }

The vulnerability is an integer overflow with the operation y * stride is calculated. y and stride are signed int variables. So the y * stride can be overflown in certain situations. When this happens the result of y * stride is a negative number that gets added (subtracted) to buffer. 

The result is the variable data pointing to an invalid area and the program crashing.

A possible fix is to replace:
3078	      int stride;
3089	      for (int y = 0; y < height; y++) {
for:
3078	      unsigned int stride;
3089	      for (unsigned int y = 0; y < height; y++) {

ptrdiff_t would be better than unsigned to ensure it does not overflow on 64-bit. The bug also needs to be fixed in cairo (bug 98165).

don't overflow y*stride on 64-bit

The fix for cairo has been committed to master. Here is the corresponding fix for poppler. I'll push it out next week if there are no objections.

No objections.
