vulnerabilities :

  - A flaw exists in the libnv6 module due to an integer
    overflow condition. A remote attacker, by manipulating a
    serialized object's template string specifiers, can
    exploit this to cause an overflow, resulting in a denial
    of service or the execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2015-4067)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists in nvpmgr.exe
    related to the handling of specially crafted strings,
    which a remote attacker can exploit to cause crash.
    (CVE-2015-5696)

Note that both of these issues may be caused by the same underlying
flaw and are both fixed by upgrading to the version specified by Dell.");
