"It was discovered that Aspell, the GNU spell checker, incorrectly
handled certain inputs which leads to a stack-based buffer over-read.
An attacker could potentially access sensitive information.
For Debian 8 'Jessie', this problem has been fixed in version
0.60.7~20110707-1.3+deb8u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your aspell packages.

block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
