+ <blockquote cite="https://packetstormsecurity.com/files/138236/Debian-Security-Advisory-3644-1.html">
+ <p>Tobias Stoeckmann discovered that cache files are insufficiently
+ validated in fontconfig, a generic font configuration library. An
+ attacker can trigger arbitrary free() calls, which in turn allows
+ double free attacks and therefore arbitrary code execution. In
+ combination with setuid binaries using crafted cache files, this
+ could allow privilege escalation.</p>
