Package : libcaca
Version : 0.99.beta19-2.2+deb11u1
CVE ID : CVE-2021-30498 CVE-2021-30499
Two issues have been found in libcaca, a colour ASCII art library.
Both are related to heap buffer overflow, which might lead to memory
corruption.
For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version
0.99.beta19-2.2+deb11u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your libcaca packages.
For the detailed security status of libcaca please refer to
its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/libcaca
Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply
these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be
found at: https://wiki.debian.org/LTS
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
