Two security-related issues were fixed in libebml, a library for accessing the EBML format :
CVE-2015-8790
The EbmlUnicodeString::UpdateFromUTF8 function in libEBML before 1.3.3 allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information from process heap memory via a crafted UTF-8 string, which triggers an invalid memory access.
CVE-2015-8791
The EbmlElement::ReadCodedSizeValue function in libEBML before 1.3.3 allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information from process heap memory via a crafted length value in an EBML id, which triggers an invalid memory access.
For Debian 6 ‘squeeze’, these issues have been fixed in libebml version 0.7.7-3.1+deb6u1. We recommend you to upgrade your libebml packages.
