Subject: crash w/ Florida law Package: xserver-common Version: multiple At least two people have managed to crash X by trying to read the Florida law using xpdf.
---------- instructions for trying it ---------- Here is the Florida Administrative Code: http://fac.dos.state.fl.us/faconline/chapter64.pdf The index doesn't work too well. Try following the instructions I was given for finding Chapter 64V-1, the Vital Statistics code: In the menu on the left side, scroll all the way to the bottom to 64V-1. You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader 4.05+ to view these file. --------------------------------------------------- On the debian-powerpc mailing list, Sean Neakums and Ken Moffat report: >> I just had a go at chapter64.pdf with xpdf and >> my X server crashed, which is impressive. I can't >> remember the last time I've had X crash. > > Damn, I wish I'd read further down the thread > before I tried. Yeah, mine crashed too (on x86). > A vulnerability triggered by malicious official > documents. That's at least two bugs by my count (xpdf and X), and fixing one might hide the other. I have filed an xpdf bug as well. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
