Package : libyang Version : 0.16.105+really1.0-0+deb10u1 CVE ID : CVE-2019-20391 CVE-2019-20392 CVE-2019-20393 CVE-2019-20394 CVE-2019-20395 CVE-2019-20396 CVE-2019-20397 CVE-2019-20398

Multiple flaws were found in libyang, a parser toolkit for IETF YANG data modeling. Double frees, invalid memory access and Null pointer dereferences may cause a denial of service or potentially code execution.

For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version 0.16.105+really1.0-0+deb10u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your libyang packages.
