The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'gthumb' package(s) announced via the DLA-1567-1 advisory. The product calls free() twice on the same memory address, potentially leading to modification of unexpected memory locations. There is a suspected double-free bug with static void add_themes_from_dir() dlg-contact-sheet.c. This method involves two successive calls of g_free(buffer) (line 354 and 373), and is likely to cause double-free of the buffer. One possible fix could be directly assigning the buffer to NULL after the first call of g_free(buffer). For Debian 8 Jessie, this problem has been fixed in version 3:3.3.1-2.1+deb8u1. We recommend that you upgrade your gthumb packages. Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found a
