This update for graphite2 fixes the following issues:

  • CVE-2016-1521: The directrun function in directmachine.cpp in
    Libgraphite did not validate a certain skip operation, which allowed
    remote attackers to execute arbitrary code, obtain sensitive information,
    or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and application crash)
    via a crafted Graphite smart font.

  • CVE-2016-1523: The SillMap::readFace function in FeatureMap.cpp in
    Libgraphite mishandled a return value, which allowed remote attackers to
    cause a denial of service (missing initialization, NULL pointer
    dereference, and application crash) via a crafted Graphite smart font.

  • CVE-2016-1526: The TtfUtil:LocaLookup function in TtfUtil.cpp in
    Libgraphite incorrectly validated a size value, which allowed remote
    attackers to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service
    (out-of-bounds read and application crash) via a crafted Graphite smart
    font.
