Re: [SECURITY] [DSA 3995-1] libxfont security update

I don't believe it does. The only relevant piece of software I'm aware of from a security point of view is Xorg, which uses libxfont2 in stretch.

 Package        : libxfont
 CVE ID         : CVE-2017-13720 CVE-2017-13722
 
 Two vulnerabilities were found in libXfont, the X11 font rasterisation
 library, which could result in denial of service or memory disclosure.
 
 For the oldstable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed
 in version 1:1.5.1-1+deb8u1.
 
 For the stable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed in
 version 1:2.0.1-3+deb9u1.
 
 We recommend that you upgrade your libxfont packages.
...

src:libxfont1 in stretch also requires the fixes.
