Updated freetype2 packages fix security vulnerability
Details

Updated freetype2 packages fix security vulnerability:

It was reported that Freetype before 2.5.4 suffers from an out-of-bounds stack-based read/write flaw in cf2_hintmap_build() in the CFF rasterizing code, which could lead to a buffer overflow. This is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-2240.
