Summary

Updated libtorrent-rasterbar packages fix security vulnerability

Details

A specially crafted HTTP response from a tracker (or potentially a UPnP broadcast) can crash libtorrent-rasterbar in the parse_chunk_header() function. Although this function is not present in this version, upstream's additional sanity checks were added to abort the program if necessary instead of crashing it (CVE-2016-5301).
