A full featured, parameter driven macro package, which fully supports
advanced interactive documents. See the ConTeXt garden for a wealth of
support information.
-use-after-free problem (CVE-2010-0302)
-information disclosure (CVE-2010-1748)
-unchecked memory allocation is texttops
-file overwrite problem
(I didn't find references from cups patches to CVE #s, or vice versa,
so the CVE #s are not certain.)
The missing http session check problem (CVE-2010-0540?) is not fixed,
this would be a large patch affecting tens of files.

ArabTeX is a package extending the capabilities of TeX/LaTeX to generate
Arabic and Hebrew text. Input may be in ASCII transliteration or other
encodings (including UTF-8); output may be Arabic, Hebrew, or any of
several languages that use the Arabic script. ArabTeX consists of a TeX
macro package and Arabic and Hebrew fonts (provided both in Metafont
format and Adobe Type 1). The Arabic font is presently only available in
the Naskhi style. ArabTeX will run with Plain TeX and also with LaTeX.
libspectre 0.2.6 (10 June 2010)
===============================
This is another bugfix only release in the libspectre's 0.2 series.
The most important change in this release is that gs is now always
initalized with the flag -P- to make Ghostscript not look in the
current directory for library files. See Debian bug
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=583183
Compiler flags -ansi and -pedantic are now optional and can be enabled
with --enable-iso-c configure option. It seems -pedantic causes
performance regression when compiling with Sun Studio compiler. Thanks
to Dagobert Michelsen for eporting the issue. (Bug #27735)
Files with a doseps header and without EOF comment are correctly
rendered now. (Bug #27830)
The package provides the Arabic and Farsi script support for TeX without
the need of any external pre-processor. The bi- directional capability
supposes that the user has a TeX engine that knows the four primitives
\beginR, \endR, \beginL and \endL. That is the case in both the TeX--XeT
and e-TeX engines. Arabi will accept input in several 8-bit encodings,
including UTF-8. Arabi can make use of a wide variety of Arabic and
Farsi fonts; PDF files generated using Arabi may be searched, and text
may be copied from them and pasted elsewhere.
the shift from traditional ulpt(4)/usblp to libusb. Clarify that the
backend, when run without arguments, also prints out DeviceURIs of
traditional printers. PKGREVISION++.

Multiple integer overflows in dvipsk/dospecial.c in dvips in TeX
Live 2009 and earlier, and teTeX, allow remote attackers to cause a
denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary
code via a special command in a DVI file, related to the (1)
predospecial and (2) bbdospecial functions, a different
vulnerability than CVE-2010-0739.
