What is CVE-2009-0755?

The FormWidgetChoice::loadDefaults function in Poppler before version 0.10.4 contains a vulnerability that enables remote attackers to trigger a denial of service (DoS) condition. This is achieved by sending specially crafted PDF files containing an invalid Form Opt entry, which leads to application crashes.
