 Package : libheif Version : 1.11.0-1+deb11u2 CVE IDs : CVE-2023-0996 CVE-2023-29659 Debian Bugs : 1032101 1035607

 It was discovered that there were two issues in libheif, a decoder and encoder for the HEIF and AVIF image formats that could have been exploited by specially-crafted image files.

 For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version 1.11.0-1+deb11u2.

 We recommend that you upgrade your libheif packages.

 For the detailed security status of libheif please refer to its security tracker page at:
