<p>zbar, a barcode and qrcode scanner was vulnerable.</p>

<ul>

<li><a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2023-40889">CVE-2023-40889</a>

    <p>A heap-based buffer overflow existed
    in the qr_reader_match_centers function.
    Specially crafted QR codes may lead to information disclosure
    and/or arbitrary code execution. To trigger this
    vulnerability, an attacker can digitally input the
    malicious QR code, or prepare it to be physically scanned
    by the vulnerable scanner.</p></li>

<li><a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2023-40890">CVE-2023-40890</a>

    <p>A stack overflow was present in lookup_sequence
    function. Specially crafted QR codes may lead
    to information disclosure and/or arbitrary code execution.
    To trigger this vulnerability, an attacker can digitally input
    the malicious QR code, or prepare it to be physically scanned
    by the vulnerable scanner.</p></li>

</ul>

<p>For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version
