Notes

alexmurray

Whilst the CVE description mentions the stress-test binary (which is only part of the test suite in pixman and itself is not distributed in Ubuntu) it is not clear if this is a bug in the underlying library code itself or just in stress-test

mdeslaur

New comment in upstream bug does suggest this issue is in the test binary
