   Security issue fixed:
   - CVE-2016-10244: The parse_charstrings function in type1/t1load.c did not
     ensure that a font contains a glyph name, which allowed remote attackers
     to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read) or possibly
     have unspecified other impact via a crafted file (bsc#1028103).

   - CVE-2017-8105: Fixed an out-of-bounds write caused by a heap-based
     buffer overflow related to the t1_decoder_parse_charstrings function in
     psaux/t1decode.ca (bsc#1035807)
   - CVE-2017-8287: an out-of-bounds write caused by a heap-based buffer
     overflow related to the t1_builder_close_contour function in
