Description of the change
CVE patch pulled from Debian. Affects this packaging.
If you would be so kind to backport this patch (if they apply successfully) to the other supported Ubuntu versions (excluding Saucy, there are currently issues with GCC 4.8 (build failures), which I reported to upstream).
The plan is to apply to be a developer (my wiki's page already up, my developer application wiki page, not yet) during Saucy cycle.
