{"schema_version":"1.7.2","id":"OESA-2026-2766","modified":"2026-08-06T11:11:41Z","published":"2026-06-24T11:11:41Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-46529"],"summary":"evince security update","details":"Evince is a document viewer for multiple document formats. The goal of evince is to replace the multiple document viewers that exist on the GNOME Desktop with a single simple application. Evince is specifically designed to support the file following formats: PDF, Postscript, djvu, tiff, dvi, XPS, SyncTex support with gedit, comics books (cbr,cbz,cb7 and cbt).\r\n\r\nSecurity Fix(es):\n\nAtril Document Viewer is the default document reader of the MATE desktop environment for Linux. A single-click remote code execution vulnerability in versions prior to 1.26.3 and 1.28.4 allows an attacker to achieve arbitrary code execution as the user by tricking them into clicking a link inside a malicious PDF document. The PDF can be packaged as a polyglot file that is simultaneously a valid PDF and a valid ELF shared library, making the attack a single-file, single-click, configuration-independent RCE on stock atril installations. The root cause is `shell/ev-application.c:ev_spawn`, which builds a command line from attacker-controlled PDF link-destination fields without applying `g_shell_quote`. The cmdline is then handed to `g_app_info_create_from_commandline`, which shell-parses it back into argv — splitting any embedded `--gtk-module=PATH` into a separate argv element. GTK then `dlopen()`s the path during init, running any `__attribute__((constructor))` it finds. Versions 1.26.3 and 1.28.4 contain a patch for the issue. This is the same defect class as CVE-2023-51698 (CBT `--checkpoint-action` injection in `comics-document.c`, fixed in 1.6.2) but in a different code path (`shell/ev-application.c`) that the original patch did not touch.(CVE-2026-46529)","affected":[{"package":{"ecosystem":"openEuler:20.03-LTS-SP4","name":"evince","purl":"pkg:rpm/openEuler/evince&distro=openEuler-20.03-LTS-SP4"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"3.30.1-5.oe2003sp4"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"aarch64":["evince-3.30.1-5.oe2003sp4.aarch64.rpm","evince-debuginfo-3.30.1-5.oe2003sp4.aarch64.rpm","evince-debugsource-3.30.1-5.oe2003sp4.aarch64.rpm","evince-devel-3.30.1-5.oe2003sp4.aarch64.rpm","evince-help-3.30.1-5.oe2003sp4.aarch64.rpm"],"src":["evince-3.30.1-5.oe2003sp4.src.rpm"],"x86_64":["evince-3.30.1-5.oe2003sp4.x86_64.rpm","evince-debuginfo-3.30.1-5.oe2003sp4.x86_64.rpm","evince-debugsource-3.30.1-5.oe2003sp4.x86_64.rpm","evince-devel-3.30.1-5.oe2003sp4.x86_64.rpm","evince-help-3.30.1-5.oe2003sp4.x86_64.rpm"]}},{"package":{"ecosystem":"openEuler:22.03-LTS-SP4","name":"evince","purl":"pkg:rpm/openEuler/evince&distro=openEuler-22.03-LTS-SP4"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"3.38.2-2.oe2203sp4"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"aarch64":["evince-3.38.2-2.oe2203sp4.aarch64.rpm","evince-debuginfo-3.38.2-2.oe2203sp4.aarch64.rpm","evince-debugsource-3.38.2-2.oe2203sp4.aarch64.rpm","evince-devel-3.38.2-2.oe2203sp4.aarch64.rpm","evince-help-3.38.2-2.oe2203sp4.aarch64.rpm"],"src":["evince-3.38.2-2.oe2203sp4.src.rpm"],"x86_64":["evince-3.38.2-2.oe2203sp4.x86_64.rpm","evince-debuginfo-3.38.2-2.oe2203sp4.x86_64.rpm","evince-debugsource-3.38.2-2.oe2203sp4.x86_64.rpm","evince-devel-3.38.2-2.oe2203sp4.x86_64.rpm","evince-help-3.38.2-2.oe2203sp4.x86_64.rpm"]}},{"package":{"ecosystem":"openEuler:24.03-LTS-SP1","name":"evince","purl":"pkg:rpm/openEuler/evince&distro=openEuler-24.03-LTS-SP1"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"44.3-3.oe2403sp1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"aarch64":["evince-44.3-3.oe2403sp1.aarch64.rpm","evince-debuginfo-44.3-3.oe2403sp1.aarch64.rpm","evince-debugsource-44.3-3.oe2403sp1.aarch64.rpm","evince-devel-44.3-3.oe2403sp1.aarch64.rpm"],"noarch":["evince-help-44.3-3.oe2403sp1.noarch.rpm"],"src":["evince-44.3-3.oe2403sp1.src.rpm"],"x86_64":["evince-44.3-3.oe2403sp1.x86_64.rpm","evince-debuginfo-44.3-3.oe2403sp1.x86_64.rpm","evince-debugsource-44.3-3.oe2403sp1.x86_64.rpm","evince-devel-44.3-3.oe2403sp1.x86_64.rpm"]}},{"package":{"ecosystem":"openEuler:24.03-LTS-SP3","name":"evince","purl":"pkg:rpm/openEuler/evince&distro=openEuler-24.03-LTS-SP3"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"44.3-3.oe2403sp3"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"aarch64":["evince-44.3-3.oe2403sp3.aarch64.rpm","evince-debuginfo-44.3-3.oe2403sp3.aarch64.rpm","evince-debugsource-44.3-3.oe2403sp3.aarch64.rpm","evince-devel-44.3-3.oe2403sp3.aarch64.rpm"],"noarch":["evince-help-44.3-3.oe2403sp3.noarch.rpm"],"src":["evince-44.3-3.oe2403sp3.src.rpm"],"x86_64":["evince-44.3-3.oe2403sp3.x86_64.rpm","evince-debuginfo-44.3-3.oe2403sp3.x86_64.rpm","evince-debugsource-44.3-3.oe2403sp3.x86_64.rpm","evince-devel-44.3-3.oe2403sp3.x86_64.rpm"]}}],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.openeuler.org/zh/security/security-bulletins/detail/?id=openEuler-SA-2026-2766"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-46529"}],"severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/MVI:X/MVA:X/MSC:X/MSI:X/MSA:X/S:X/AU:X/R:X/V:X/RE:X/U:X"}],"database_specific":{"severity":"High"}}
