Description Mark J. Cox 2006-08-15 20:27:12 UTC

Same issue affects fc6test2

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #202469 +++

An integer overflow was discovered in the way freetype processes malformed PCF
files.  It seems that Xorg also contains the same PCF processing code as
freetype, there it too is vulnerable this issue.

We initally described this issue for freetype in bug 190593.

The upstream bug is here:

libXfont-1.0.0-3 has been pushed for fc5, which should resolve this issue.  If
these problems are still present in this version, then please make note of it in
this bug report.
