It was found that an out of bounds write caused by a heap-based buffer overflow could be triggered in freetype via a crafted font.

This update also reverts the fix for CVE-2016-10328, as it was determined that freetype 2.4.9 is not affected by that issue.

For Debian 7 ‘Wheezy’, these problems have been fixed in version 2.4.9-1.1+deb7u6.

We recommend that you upgrade your freetype 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.
