I just sent a DLA. Last time I tried sending a DLA it didn't work, so here is the text, in case it didn't work, and somebody else wants to retry in my night time hours. --------------- From: Brian May <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Subject: [SECURITY] [DLA 847-1] texlive-base security update -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Package : texlive-base Version : 2012.20120611-5+deb7u1 CVE ID : CVE-2016-10243 The TeX system allows for calling external programs from within the TeX source code. This has been restricted to a small set of programs since a long time ago. Unfortunately it turned out that one program in the list, mpost, allows in turn to specify other programs to be run, which allows arbitrary code execution when compiling a TeX document. For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version 2012.20120611-5+deb7u1. We recommend that you upgrade your texlive-base packages.
