Package: freeciv
Version: 2.6.2.1-2
Tags: Security

Gtk-client may crash when receiving chat message. It's reported that
certain chat messages always do that, making it possible for one
player to crash clients of other players on the same server.
Upstream fix is in https://www.hostedredmine.com/issues/910832, and
there's going to be freeciv-2.6.3 release with this fix included later
tonight. However, gtk-clients in older Debian releases are likely to
be affected.
