The Debian 'freetype' package(s) is missing an update announced via the Security Advisory DSA-2428-1. It is affected by multiple vulnerabilities in Freetype's parsing of BDF, Type1 and TrueType fonts, which could result in the execution of arbitrary code if a malformed font file is processed. The solution is to install the updated package(s)
