Package: evince
Version: 0.4.0-2+b2
Severity: important
Tags: Security

A vulnerability has been identified in GNOME Evince, which could be
exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary commands. This flaw is due
to a buffer overflow error when handling a PostScript file containing an
overly long "DocumentMedia" field, which could be exploited by attackers
to crash a vulnerable application or compromise a vulnerable system by
convincing a user to open a specially crafted file.

Maybe the version evince 0.4.0-2+b3 and 0.4.0-2+b2 is vulnerable.
If not I will close this bug.
