Package: coreutils
Version: 8.13-3.5
Severity: grave

Dear Maintainer,

this bug is described here:

  http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=12656

and can be summarized as follows:

+  cp could read from freed memory and could even make corrupt copies.
+  This could happen only with a very fragmented input file and when using
+  its FIEMAP/extent-based copying code.  [bug introduced in coreutils-8.11]

It is present in the wheezy coreutils version and is fixed in
jessie/sid.  A backport of the fix or an update of coreutils would be
welcomed for wheezy.
