NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream harfbuzz package and not the harfbuzz package as distributed by Ubuntu.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in HarfBuzz before 1.0.6, as used in Google Chrome before 48.0.2564.82, allow attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have other impact via crafted data, as demonstrated by a buffer over-read resulting from an inverted length check in hb-ot-font.cc, a different issue than CVE-2015-8947.
