   An update that has one recommended fix can now be installed.

Description:


   This update for libXfont fixes the following issues:

   - The original fix for CVE-2015-1804 prevented DWIDTH to be negative.
     However, the spec states that "DWIDTH [...] is a vector indicating the
     position of the next glyph's origin relative to the origin of this
     glyph". Consequently, negative DWIDTH values should be allowed.
     (bsc#958383)
