Recommended Posts

An integer overflow vulnerability was discovered in the way the

FreeType font engine processed TTF files. If a user were to load a

special font file with a program linked against freetype, it could

cause the application to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code as

the user running the program.

 

The updated packages have been patched to prevent this issue.
