CVE ID : CVE-2023-5217 CVE-2023-44488

Two buffer overflow vulnerabilities were found in libvpx, a multimedia
library for the VP8 and VP9 video codecs, which could result in the
execution of arbitrary code if a specially crafted VP8 or VP9 media
stream is processed.

For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version
1.7.0-3+deb10u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your libvpx packages.
