Artifex MuPDF Signature Locking pdf-xref.c free_char_list double free

A vulnerability was detected in Artifex MuPDF up to 1.28.5. This impacts the function free_char_list of the file source/pdf/pdf-xref.c of the component Signature Locking. Performing a manipulation results in double free. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit is now public and may be used. The patch is named 3984925b660afb8a781ddf504021e91be1bc671e. To fix this issue, it is recommended to deploy a patch.

MuPDF < 1.27.0-rc1 Stack Exhaustion DoS via EPUB CSS Rendering

MuPDF before 1.27.0-rc1 contains an uncontrolled recursion vulnerability in the EPUB CSS rendering engine that allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by supplying a maliciously crafted EPUB file with deeply nested HTML elements and inline CSS styles. The function value_from_inheritable_property() in css-apply.c recurses through the CSS property inheritance chain without a depth limit, exhausting the process stack and causing a crash in any application using MuPDF for EPUB rendering.

Artifex MuPDF CFF Index subset-cff.c fz_subset_cff_for_gids out-of-bounds

A vulnerability was determined in Artifex MuPDF up to 1.28.0. The impacted element is the function fz_subset_cff_for_gids of the file subset-cff.c of the component CFF Index Handler. This manipulation causes out-of-bounds read. The attack can only be executed locally. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. The project was informed of the problem early through a bug report but has not responded yet.

MuPDF < 1.27 mutool ANSI Injection via Metadata

MuPDF before 1.27 contains an ANSI injection vulnerability in mutool that allows attackers to inject arbitrary ANSI escape sequences through crafted PDF metadata fields. Attackers can embed malicious ANSI escape codes in PDF metadata that are passed unsanitized to terminal output when running mutool info, enabling them to manipulate terminal display for social engineering attacks such as presenting fake prompts or spoofed commands.

CVE-2026-3308

An integer overflow vulnerability in 'pdf-image.c' in Artifex's MuPDF version 1.27.0 allows an attacker to maliciously craft a PDF that can trigger an integer overflow within the 'pdf_load_image_imp' function. This allows a heap out-of-bounds write that could be exploited for arbitrary code execution.

MuPDF 1.23.0 through 1.27.0 Barcode Decoding Double Free

MuPDF versions 1.23.0 through 1.27.0 contain a double-free vulnerability in fz_fill_pixmap_from_display_list() when an exception occurs during display list rendering. The function accepts a caller-owned fz_pixmap pointer but incorrectly drops the pixmap in its error handling path before rethrowing the exception. Callers (including the barcode decoding path in fz_decode_barcode_from_display_list) also drop the same pixmap in cleanup, resulting in a double-free that can corrupt the heap and crash the process. This issue affects applications that enable and use MuPDF barcode decoding and can be triggered by processing crafted input that causes a

CVE-2025-55780

A null pointer dereference occurs in the function break_word_for_overflow_wrap() in MuPDF 1.26.4 when rendering a malformed EPUB document. Specifically, the function calls fz_html_split_flow() to split a FLOW_WORD node, but does not check if node->next is valid before accessing node->next->overflow_wrap, resulting in a crash if the split fails or returns a partial node chain.

CVE-2025-46206

An issue in Artifex mupdf 1.25.6, 1.25.5 allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via an infinite recursion in the `mutool clean` utility. When processing a crafted PDF file containing cyclic /Next references in the outline structure, the `strip_outline()` function enters infinite recursion

CVE-2024-46657

Artifex Software mupdf v1.24.9 was discovered to contain a segmentation fault via the component /tools/pdfextract.c. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted PDF file.
