Summary
ncurses security update
Details

The ncurses (new curses) library is a free software emulation of curses in System V Release 4.0 (SVr4), and more. It uses terminfo format, supports pads and color and multiple highlights and forms characters and function-key mapping, and has all the other SVr4-curses enhancements over BSD curses. SVr4 curses became the basis of X/Open Curses.

Security Fix(es):

An issue was discovered in ncurses through v6.2-1. nccaptoinfo in captoinfo.c has a heap-based buffer overflow.(CVE-2021-39537)
