How to fix?

Upgrade Echo:latest libxfont to version 1:1.2.2-2 or higher.

NVD Description

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

Integer overflow in the FontFileInitTable function in X.Org libXfont before 20070403 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via a long first line in the fonts.dir file, which results in a heap overflow.
