Upgrade Ubuntu:16.04 freerdp to version 1.1.0~git20140921.1.440916e+dfsg1-5ubuntu1.4 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream freerdp package and not the freerdp package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:16.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

In FreeRDP after 1.1 and before 2.0.0, a stream out-of-bounds seek in rdp_read_font_capability_set could lead to a later out-of-bounds read. As a result, a manipulated client or server might force a disconnect due to an invalid data read. This has been fixed in 2.0.0.
