In libmatio, a library to read and write Matlab MAT files, a vulnerability was fixed in Mat_VarReadNextInfo4 in mat4.c that could lead to a heap-based buffer over-read in strdup_vprintf.

For Debian 8 ‘Jessie’, this problem has been fixed in version 1.5.2-3+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libmatio packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
