Debian Bug     : #879996

It was discovered that there was an out-of-bounds read access in
apr-util, a support/portability library used by many applications.

A local user with write access to the database could have made a process
using these functions crash and thus cause a denial-of-service.

1.4.1-3+deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your apr-util packages.
