tag_insight = "FreeType is a free, high-quality, portable font engine that can open and
  manage font files. It also loads, hints, and renders individual glyphs
  efficiently. The freetype packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 provide
  both the FreeType 1 and FreeType 2 font engines. The freetype packages for
  Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6 provide only the FreeType 2 font engine.

  Multiple input validation flaws were found in the way FreeType processed
  bitmap font files. If a specially-crafted font file was loaded by an
  application linked against FreeType, it could cause the application to
  crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the
  user running the application. (CVE-2011-3256)
  
  Note: These issues only affected the FreeType 2 font engine.
  
  Users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a
  backported patch to correct these issues. The X server must be restarted
  (log out, then log back in) for this update to take effect.";
