Subject: libfreetype6: Upstream fixed stack overflow in interpreter
Package: libfreetype6
Version: 2.4.0-2
Severity: important
"CHANGES BETWEEN 2.4.1 and 2.4.2
I. IMPORTANT BUG FIXES
- A stack overflow in CFF Type2 CharStrings interpreter is fixed.
- Handling Type 42 font deallocation was broken; additionally, the
library is now more robust against malformed Type 42 fonts.
II. MISCELLANEOUS
- Two new functions, `FT_Reference_Library' (in FT_MODULE_H) and
`FT_Reference_Face' (in FT_FREETYPE_H), have been added to
simplify life-cycle management. A counter gets initialized to 1
at the time an FT_Library (or FT_Face) structure is created.
The two new functions increment the respective counter.
`FT_Done_Library' and `FT_Done_Face' then only destroy a library
or face if the counter is 1, otherwise they simply decrement the
counter."
