Gentoo Linux Security Advisory GLSA 200905-05 - Multiple integer overflows in FreeType might allow for the remote execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service. Tavis Ormandy reported multiple integer overflows in the cff_charset_compute_cids() function in cff/cffload.c, sfnt/tccmap.c and the ft_smooth_render_generic() function in smooth/ftsmooth.c, possibly leading to heap or stack-based buffer overflows. Versions less than 2.3.9-r1 are affected.
