NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream fribidi package and not the fribidi package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

A stack-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the Fribidi package. This flaw allows an attacker to pass a specially crafted file to the Fribidi application, which leads to a possible memory leak or a denial of service.
