Summary
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in the Graphite font rendering
engine which might result in denial of service or the execution of
arbitrary code if a malformed font file is processed.
For the oldstable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed
in version 1.3.10-1~deb8u1.
For the stable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed
prior to the initial release.
We recommend that you upgrade your graphite2 packages.
