Overview

Talos has discovered multiple vulnerabilities in Iceni Argus PDF content extraction product. Exploiting these vulnerabilities can allow an attacker to gain full control over the victim’s machine. Although the main product is deprecated by Iceni, the library is still supported. Iceni has released a patched version that addresses these vulnerabilities. Nevertheless, the library is widely used; MarkLogic is an example of a product that uses Iceni Argus for PDF document conversion as part of their web based document search and rendering.
