|
43 |
A context-dependent attacker could entice a user to load specially |
44 |
crafted text using an application linked against Pango, possibly |
45 |
resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the |

53 |
Resolution |
54 |
========== |
55 |
|
56 |
All Pango users should upgrade to the latest version: |
