trigger code execution through malicious .dwg and .dxf files.

CVE-2021-21898

A code execution vulnerability exists in the
dwgCompressor::decompress18() functionality of LibreCad

out-of-bounds write.

A code execution vulnerability exists in the
dwgCompressor::copyCompBytes21 functionality of LibreCad
libdxfrw. A specially-crafted .dwg file can lead to a heap buffer
overflow.

CVE-2021-21900

A code execution vulnerability exists in the dxfRW::processLType()
functionality of LibreCad libdxfrw. A specially-crafted .dxf file
can lead to a use-after-free vulnerability.

For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version
2.1.2-1+deb9u2.
