Title: FreeType TTF File Remote Denial of Service Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
FreeType is an open-source font-handling library.
FreeType is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability. This issue is due to a flaw in the library that causes a NULL-pointer dereference. This issue is due to flaws in the 'base/ftutil.c' source file.
This issue allows remote attackers to crash applications that use the affected library, denying service to legitimate users.
FreeType versions prior to 2.2.1 are vulnerable to this issue.
