commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=84e3e5a9f0a6028d230c757fbac8e8895e31dcc3
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/2017.02.x

Add upstream post-2.7.1 commits (except for ChangeLog modifications) fixing
the following security issues:

CVE-2017-8105 - FreeType 2 before 2017-03-24 has an out-of-bounds write
caused by a heap-based buffer overflow related to the
t1_decoder_parse_charstrings function in psaux/t1decode.c.

CVE-2017-8287 - FreeType 2 before 2017-03-26 has an out-of-bounds write
caused by a heap-based buffer overflow related to the
t1_builder_close_contour function in psaux/psobjs.c.

+Subject: [PATCH] [psaux] Better protect `flex' handling.
+
+Reported as
+
+  https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/detail?id=935
+
+* src/psaux/t1decode.c (t1_decoder_parse_charstrings)
+<callothersubr>: Since there is not a single flex operator but a
+series of subroutine calls, malformed fonts can call arbitrary other
+operators after the start of a flex, possibly adding points.  For
+this reason we have to check the available number of points before
+inserting a point.
