Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for vlc, sorry another one.
For buster, stretch I think we can follow the usual strategy and
release a new upstream stable version once available.

CVE-2019-13615[0]:
| VideoLAN VLC media player 3.0.7.1 has a heap-based buffer over-read in
| mkv::demux_sys_t::FreeUnused() in modules/demux/mkv/demux.cpp when
| called from mkv::Open in modules/demux/mkv/mkv.cpp.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
