files. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted file
(e.g., email messages in gnus), an attacker could possibly use this to
execute arbitrary code.

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."
