The remote host is missing an update for the 'libvpx' package(s) announced via the USN-6814-1 advisory. Xiantong Hou discovered that libvpx did not properly handle certain malformed media files. If an application using libvpx opened a specially crafted file, a remote attacker could cause a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. Please install the updated package(s)
