Title:	Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-848-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'freetype' package(s) announced via the DLA-848-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'freetype' package(s) announced via the DLA-848-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: It was discovered that there was a denial of service vulnerability in freetype, a font rendering library. The parse_charstrings function did not ensure that a font contains a glyph name, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a specially-crafted file. For Debian 7 Wheezy, this issue has been fixed in freetype version 2.4.9-1.1+deb7u4. We recommend that you upgrade your freetype packages. Affected Software/OS: 'freetype' package(s) on Debian 7. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.8 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
