  A buffer overflow flaw was found in HarfBuzz, an OpenType text shaping
  engine used in the embedded Pango library. If a frysk application were used
  to debug or trace a process that uses HarfBuzz while it loaded a
  specially-crafted font file, it could cause the application to crash or,
  possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running
  the application. (CVE-2011-3193)

  contains a backported patch to correct this issue. All running frysk
