Description Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-09-12 23:51:07 UTC
We patched the other issues (CVEs mentioned in the release notes) in bug 754681, but this wasn't in our snapshot:

"some more denial of service (compute time or stack exhaustion) counter-measures
added that avoid minutes of decoding time with malformed files found
by OSS-Fuzz"
