Synopsis: Moderate: pango security update
Issue date: 2011-01-27
CVE Names: CVE-2011-0020
An input sanitization flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was
found in the way Pango displayed font files when using the FreeType font
engine back end. If a user loaded a malformed font file with an
application that uses Pango, it could cause the application to crash or,
possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running
the application. (CVE-2011-0020)
After installing the updated packages, you must restart your system or
restart your X session for the update to take effect.
