Package: evince
Version: 0.4.0-2
Severity: critical
Tags: security, patch
This is the same vulnerability as reported against gv as bug 398292,
since evince has old gv code embedded (I've updated the wiki to reflect
this: http://wiki.debian.org/EmbeddedCodeCopies)
Patch attached (applies to both 0.4.0 and 0.6.1).
