Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for mupdf.

CVE-2019-13290[0]:
| Artifex MuPDF 1.15.0 has a heap-based buffer overflow in
| fz_append_display_node located at fitz/list-device.c, allowing remote
| attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF file. This
| occurs with a large BDC property name that overflows the allocated
| size of a display list node.

I'm not 100% certain, that the issue is not introduced only after the
current version in unstable, but looking at the code I marked it as
found in 1.14.0+ds1-4 already, let me know if you think this was
wrong. Upstream issue it at [1] with fixes [2] and [3].

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
