There is a vulnerability in the Graphite library:
http://news.softpedia.com/news/vulnerability-in-font-processing-library-affects-linux-openoffice-firefox-500027.shtml
Reportedly the problems have been patched in version 1.3.5 of Graphite2. But the version of xetex I'm using (3.14159265-2.6-0.99992, from the TeX Live 2015 distro) says it uses Graphite2 v1.2.3. Will the next TeX Live distro's version of xetex use >= v.1.3.5?

        "I cannot believe that our existence in this universe
        is a mere quirk of fate, an accident of history, an
        incidental blip in the great cosmic drama. Our
        involvement is too intimate. The physical species
        Homo may count for nothing, but the existence of
        mind in some organism on some planet in the universe
        is surely a fact of fundamental significance. Through
        conscious beings the universe has generated
        self-awareness." --Paul Davies
