*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

Public security bug reported:

Teeworlds 0.6.3 released a security fix for an exploitable server bug ("Memory reads, Segmentation Fault"): https://www.teeworlds.com/?page=news&id=11200
Debian has already backported the fix to 0.6.2: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=770514
This fix (affecting teeworlds-server) is already included in vivid and wily, but should be backported to older but still supported Ubuntu releases.

Teeworlds 0.6.3 also fixed a bug in the client, which seems not to have
been included in the current Debian release: "Fix client crash when
opening a map with an invalid version"
