2017-07-29Handle zlib data errors better (fixes #106)Jay Berkenbilt
2017-07-29Better recovery of bad stream start (fixes #104)Jay Berkenbilt
2017-07-29Better handle split content streams (fixes #73)Jay Berkenbilt
When parsing content streams, allow content to be split arbitrarily across stream boundaries.
2017-07-29Add option to preserve unreferenced objectsJay Berkenbilt
2017-07-28Add precheck streams capabilityJay Berkenbilt
When requested, QPDFWriter will do more aggress prechecking of streams to make sure it can actually succeed in decoding them before attempting to do so. This will allow preservation of raw data even when the raw data is corrupted relative to the specified filters.
2017-07-28Convert stream filtering errors to warningsJay Berkenbilt
2017-07-28Convert object parsing errors to warningsJay Berkenbilt
QPDFObjectHandle::parseInternal now issues warnings instead of throwing exceptions for all error conditions that it finds (except internal logic errors) and has stronger recovery for things like invalid tokens and malformed dictionaries. This should improve qpdf's ability to recover from a wide range of broken files that currently cause it to fail.
2017-07-26Include tests for other infinite loop bugsJay Berkenbilt
fixes #117 fixes #118 fixes #119 fixes #120 Several other infinite loop bugs were fixed by previous changes. Include their test files in the test suite.
2017-07-26Don't interpret word tokens in content streams (fixes #82)Jay Berkenbilt
2017-07-26Detect recursion loops resolving objects (fixes #51)Jay Berkenbilt
During parsing of an object, sometimes parts of the object have to be resolved. An example is stream lengths. If such an object directly or indirectly points to the object being parsed, it can cause an infinite loop. Guard against all cases of re-entrant resolution of objects.
2017-07-26Handle object ID 0 (fixes #99)Jay Berkenbilt
This is CVE-2017-9208. The QPDF library uses object ID 0 internally as a sentinel to represent a direct object, but prior to this fix, was not blocking handling of 0 0 obj or 0 0 R as a special case. Creating an object in the file with 0 0 obj could cause various infinite loops. The PDF spec doesn't allow for object 0. Having qpdf handle object 0 might be a better fix, but changing all the places in the code that assumes objid == 0 means direct would be risky.
2017-07-26Avoid xref reconstruction infinite loop (fixes #100)Jay Berkenbilt
This is CVE-2017-9209.
2017-07-26Fix infinite loop while reporting an error (fixes #101)Jay Berkenbilt
This is CVE-2017-9210. The description string for an error message included unparsing an object, which is too complex of a thing to try to do while throwing an exception. There was only one example of this in the entire codebase, so it is not a pervasive problem. Fixing this eliminated one class of infinite loop errors.
2015-11-10Prepare 6.0.0 releaserelease-qpdf-6.0.0Jay Berkenbilt
2015-11-01Prepare 5.2.0 releaserelease-qpdf-5.2.0Jay Berkenbilt
2015-10-31Tolerate some mangled xref tablesJay Berkenbilt
If xref table entries lack the spec-required trailing whitespace or contain a small amount of extra space, handle them anyway.
2015-10-31Implement deterministic IDJay Berkenbilt
For non-encrypted files, determinstic ID generation uses file contents instead of timestamp and file name. At a small runtime cost, this enables generation of the same /ID if the same inputs are converted in the same way multiple times.
2015-05-24Prepare 5.1.3 releaserelease-qpdf-5.1.3Jay Berkenbilt
2015-05-24fix-qdf: handle object streams with > 255 objectsJay Berkenbilt
fix-qdf was previously hard-coding the number of bytes for the f2 field of the xref stream entry. This addresses issue #37. Thanks aluebcke for reporting.
2015-05-24Handle Microsoft crypt provider without prior keysJay Berkenbilt
As reported in issue #40, a call to CryptAcquireContext in SecureRandomDataProvider fails in a fresh windows install prior to any user keys being created in AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA. Thanks michalrames.
2015-05-24include time.h in QUtil.hhJay Berkenbilt
QUtil.hh needs time.h to get time_t on some platforms. Thanks Peter Korsgaard <peter@korsgaard.com>
2015-02-22Detect loops in /Pages structureJay Berkenbilt
Pushing inherited objects to pages and getting all pages were both prone to stack overflow infinite loops if there were loops in the Pages dictionary. There is a general weakness in the code in that any part of the code that traverses the Pages structure would be prone to this and would have to implement its own loop detection. A more robust fix may provide some general method for handling the Pages structure, but it's probably not worth doing. Note: addition of *Internal2 private functions was done rather than changing signatures of existing methods to avoid breaking compatibility.
2015-02-21Avoid buffer overrun copying digestJay Berkenbilt
Converting a password to an encryption key is supposed to copy up to a certain number of bytes from a digest. Make sure never to copy more than the size of the digest.
2015-02-21Avoid resolving arguments to RJay Berkenbilt
When checking two objects preceding R while parsing, ensure that the objects are direct. This avoids stuff like 1 0 obj containing 1 0 R 0 R from causing an infinite loop in object resolution.
2014-12-29Handle page tree node with no /TypeJay Berkenbilt
Original reported here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qpdf/+bug/1397413 The PDF specification says that the /Type key for nodes in the pages dictionary (both /Page and /Pages) is required, but some PDF files omit them. Use the presence of other keys to determine the type of pages tree node this is if the type key is not found.
2014-11-14Handle pages with no /Contents from getPageContents()Jay Berkenbilt
The spec allows /Contents to be omitted for pages that are blank, but QPDFObjectHandle::getPageContents() was throwing an exception in this case.
2014-06-07Prepare 5.1.2 releaserelease-qpdf-5.1.2Jay Berkenbilt
2014-06-07Windows build (msvc): target Windows 5.0.1 (XP)Jay Berkenbilt
Without this, qpdf executables work only on Vista or newer. Fixes #35
2014-06-07Example: fast split into single pagesJay Berkenbilt
This is faster than using qpdf --pages to do it.
2014-06-07Handle indirect stream filter/decode parametersJay Berkenbilt
QPDFWriter was trying to make /Filter and /DecodeParms direct in all cases, but there are some cases where /DecodeParms may refer to a stream, which can't be direct. QPDFWriter doesn't actually need /DecodeParms to be direct in that case because it won't be able to filter the stream. Until we can handle this type of stream, just don't make /Filter and /DecodeParms direct if we can't filter the stream anyway. Fixes #34
2014-02-23Fix calculation of xref stream stream columnsJay Berkenbilt
Fix problem: if the last object in the first part of a linearized file had an offset that was below 65536 by less than the size of the hint stream, the xref stream was invalid and the resulting file is not usable.
2014-01-14Prepare 5.1.1 releaserelease-qpdf-5.1.1Jay Berkenbilt
2013-12-26Avoid traversing same object twice when copying objectsJay Berkenbilt
This is a performance fix. The output is unchanged. Fixes #28.
2013-12-17Prepare 5.1.0 releaserelease-qpdf-5.1.0Jay Berkenbilt
2013-12-16Increase random data provider supportJay Berkenbilt
Add a method to get the current random data provider, and document and test the method for resetting it.
2013-12-14Allow OS-provided secure random to be disabledJay Berkenbilt
2013-12-14Refactor random data generationJay Berkenbilt
Add new RandomDataProvider object and implement existing random number generation in terms of that. This enables end users to supply their own random data providers.
2013-12-14Allow arbitrary whitespace, not just newline, after xrefJay Berkenbilt
Fixes #27.
2013-11-30Allow -DNO_GET_ENVIRONMENT to avoid GetEnvironmentVariableJay Berkenbilt
If NO_GET_ENVIRONMENT is #defined at compile time on Windows, do not call GetEnvironmentVariable. QUtil::get_env will always return false. This option is not available through configure. This was added to support a specific user's requirements to avoid calling GetEnvironmentVariable from the Windows API. Nothing in qpdf outside the test coverage system in qtest relies on QUtil::get_env.
2013-11-30Add /FS flag (msvc) for parallel buildsJay Berkenbilt
2013-11-30Add more detail to previous ChangeLog entryJay Berkenbilt
2013-11-29Include <algorithm> for std::min, std::maxJay Berkenbilt
2013-11-21Use 8 bit per sample images in testsJay Berkenbilt
In compare image tests, use the gs device tiff24nc instead of tiff12nc since the 4 bit per sample images created by tiff12nc could sometimes trigger a bug in tiffcmp. Fixes #20.
2013-11-21Add a ChangeLog note for previous fixJay Berkenbilt
2013-10-18Prepare for 5.0.1 releaserelease-qpdf-5.0.1Jay Berkenbilt
2013-10-18Warn when -accessibility=n will be ignoredJay Berkenbilt
Also accept -accessibility=n with 256 bit keys even though it will be ignored.
2013-10-18Security: replace operator[] with atJay Berkenbilt
For std::string and std::vector, replace operator[] with at. This was done using an automated process. See README.hardening for details.
2013-10-18Security: use a secure random number generatorJay Berkenbilt
If not available, give an error. The user may also configure qpdf to use an insecure random number generator.
2013-10-10Replace some assertions with std::logic_errorJay Berkenbilt
Ideally, the library should never call assert outside of test code, but it does in several places. For some cases where the assertion might conceivably fail because of a problem with the input data, replace assertions with exceptions so that they can be trapped by the calling application. This commit surely misses some cases and replaced some cases unnecessarily, but it should still be an improvement.
2013-10-10Security: avoid pre-allocating vectors based on file dataJay Berkenbilt
In places where std::vector<T>(size_t) was used, either validate that the size parameter is sane or refactor code to avoid the need to pre-allocate the vector.
