Kostya Serebryany discovered that HarfBuzz incorrectly handled memory.
A remote attacker could use this issue to cause HarfBuzz to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2015-8947)

It was discovered that HarfBuzz incorrectly handled certain length checks. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause HarfBuzz to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only applied to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2016-2052).

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