    Package : freexl
    CVE ID : CVE-2017-2923 CVE-2017-2924
    Debian Bug : 875690 875691

    Marcin 'Icewall' Noga of Cisco Talos discovered two vulnerabilities in
    freexl, a library to read Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, which might
    result in denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code if a
    malformed Excel file is opened.

    For the oldstable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed
    in version 1.0.0g-1+deb8u4.

    For the stable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.2-2+deb9u1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
    version 1.0.4-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your freexl packages.
