Original advisory text
graphite2 security update
Graphite is a system that can be used to create “smart fonts” capable of displaying writing systems with various complex behaviors. A smart font contains not only letter shapes but also additional instructions indicating how to combine and position the letters in complex ways.

Security Fix(es):

Graphite before 1.3.15 has an integer underflow and resultant out-of-bounds write via Graphite actions, because slotat does not ensure that an offset is within the allowed slot-map range.(CVE-2026-50593)
