Hongxu Chen found several issues in djvulibre, a library and set of tools to handle images in the DjVu format.

The issues are a heap-buffer-overflow, a stack-overflow, an infinite loop and an invalid read when working with crafted files as input.

For Debian 8 Jessie, these problems have been fixed in version 3.5.25.4-4+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your djvulibre packages.
