changelog:
libcairo (1.2.4-4.1+etch1) stable-security; urgency=high

  * Non-maintainer upload by the Security Team.
  * Backport two upstream security fixes for CVE-2007-5503, and a
    fix to a regression caused by one of them:
    - backported-malloc_int_overflow.patch: Fix widespread
      integer-overflow vulnerabilities in malloc() calls
    - backported-realloc_int_overflow.patch: likewise, but for
      realloc() calls
    - backported-zerosurface.patch: _get_bitmap_surface():  return a
      zero-sized surface when requested, rather than failing an alloc
    - upstream-malloc_divbyzero.patch: prevent divide-by-zero in alloc
      wrappers
