Description:
Previous versions of the inkscape package are vulnerable to attacks
which would allow unauthorized system access at the permission level of
the user running inkscape (usually non-root). One attack vector is by
coercing a user into opening a specially crafted URI, while the other
requires that the user be logged into a malicious jabber server using
the client provided in inkscape.
