Description:

Using pdf forms with the current version of mupdf crashes the application.
Simply clicking on a form input in a pdf file will cause the application to be unresponsive.
When started from the console there will be a broken prompt for the input message.


Since the form functionality is clearly completely broken and also requires javascript support, it would be best to disable form and javascript support at compiletime both for stability, usability and security reasons.

Please note that Debian already does this. When using mupdf 1.9a+ds1-1.2 on debian testing the forms are ignored an javascript is completely disabled.

https://packages.debian.org/stretch/mupdf



Version: 1.9_a-5


Steps to reproduce:

Open a pdf file with forms from commandline and click on a textinput box.
