detailed analysis report, a poc file, proposed patch
## Overview
I and my colleague have found a vulnerability of Cairo-1.15.4 when fuzzing
HarfBuzz with AFL. HarBuzz is an OpenType text shaping engine and it contains a
tool named hb-view which utilizes Cairo to give a graphical view of text using
a font provided by user. This vulnerability is due to logical problem in
program, and can cause a Denial-of-Service attack with a crafted font file.
The attachment is a zip file which includes my detail analysis report and a PoC
file. In order to avoid disclosing it before patch is released, I have
encrypted it. The developers can communicate with me to get the password.
