Description Dhananjay Arunesh 2023-07-03 08:51:28 UTC 
These fix a potential security vulnerability in the parsing of colours.
Previously, Iif someone had coded an application allowing user-input
expressions to be passed to our toColor constructor function, there was a
way to execute inappropriate code.  If you are doing this, please upgrade
to the newest version.
