Package : pixman
CVE ID : CVE-2014-9766

Vincent LE GARREC discovered an integer overflow in pixman, a
pixel-manipulation library for X and cairo. A remote attacker can
exploit this flaw to cause an application using the pixman library to
crash, or potentially, to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
the user running the application.

For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed
in version 0.26.0-4+deb7u2.

For the stable distribution (jessie), the testing distribution (stretch)
and the unstable distribution (sid), this problem was already fixed in
version 0.32.6-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your pixman packages.
