Bug ID: 96317
Summary: e-vince - Cannot open password protected pdf
Product: poppler
Version: unspecified
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: medium
Component: general
Assignee: poppler-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Test PDF
evince 3.18.2ubun amd64
Sorry if I've put the wrong component, I have no idea where it falls under.
Background: Originally, I came across this error because I've recently become
interested in transitioning to Ubuntu Linux. So naturally I have personal pdfs
which I want to open, that are password protected (sent from the bank),
Expected Result: Password should be accepted and the pdf should open
Actual Result: Despite entering the correct password e-vince acts as if the
wrong password was entered and asks again. (this is confirmed that it does not
happen in Windows)
I realised that there are actually 2 passwords for that document, one for
OPENING the pdf and another for EDITING the pdf. Still, neither work.
So obviously I can't submit sensitive docs, so I managed to make my own pdf
with the same kinda thing happening. I've attached one for you to try out.
