[SECURITY] [DLA 847-1] texlive-base security update



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256

Package        : texlive-base
Version        : 2012.20120611-5+deb7u1
CVE ID         : CVE-2016-10243


The TeX system allows for calling external programs from within the TeX
source code. This has been restricted to a small set of programs since a
long time ago.

Unfortunately it turned out that one program in the list, mpost, allows
in turn to specify other programs to be run, which allows arbitrary code
execution when compiling a TeX document.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
2012.20120611-5+deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your texlive-base packages.
