news 28 Posted April 9, 2017 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Package : potrace Version : 1.10-1+deb7u2 CVE ID : CVE-2016-8685 Debian Bug : 843861 It was discovered that potrace, an utility to transform bitmaps into vector graphics, was affected by an integer overflow in the findnext function, allowing remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory access and crash) via a crafted BMP image. For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version 1.10-1+deb7u2. We recommend that you upgrade your potrace packages.
