The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200703-07 (STLport: Possible remote execution of arbitrary code)

Two buffer overflows have been discovered, one in 'print floats' and     one in the rope constructor.

Impact :

Both of the buffer overflows could result in the remote execution of     arbitrary code. Please note that the exploitability of the     vulnerabilities depends on how the library is used by other software     programs.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
