jianglin found an issue in libextractor, a library that extracts meta-data from files of arbitrary type.
A crafted file could result in a heap-buffer-overflow vulnerability in function EXTRACTOR_dvi_extract_method in dvi_extractor.c.
For Debian 8 ‘Jessie’, this problem has been fixed in version 1:1.3-2+deb8u5.
We recommend that you upgrade your libextractor packages.
NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
