Detail
It was discovered that missing input sanitising in Freetype's processing of CID-keyed fonts could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. For the oldstable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 2.3.7-2+lenny8. For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 2.4.2-2.1+squeeze3. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 2.4.8-1. We recommend that you upgrade your freetype packages. |
