Umm... I don't know.

A search of CVEs (http://cve.mitre.org/data/downloads/index.html)
reveales that the last is CVE-2010-2643 which goes like this:

"Integer overflow in the TFM font parser in the dvi-backend component
in Evince 2.32 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary
code via a crafted font in conjunction with a DVI file that is
processed by the thumbnailer."

There is a bunch of other CVEis that also reference holes which work
with the thumbnailer(!).
