An update of the icu package has been released.

icu was updated to fix two security issues.

These security issues were fixed :

CVE-2014-8147: The resolveImplicitLevels function in common/ubidi.c in the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm implementation in ICU4C in International Components for Unicode (ICU) used an integer data type that is inconsistent with a header file, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (incorrect malloc followed by invalid free) or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted text (bsc#929629).

CVE-2014-8146: The resolveImplicitLevels function in common/ubidi.c in the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm implementation in ICU4C in International Components for Unicode (ICU) did not properly track directionally isolated pieces of text, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted text (bsc#929629).

CVE-2016-6293: The uloc_acceptLanguageFromHTTP function in common/uloc.cpp in International Components for Unicode (ICU) for C/C++ did not ensure that there is a '\0' character at the end of a certain temporary array, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a call with a long httpAcceptLanguage argument (bsc#990636).

CVE-2017-7868: International Components for Unicode (ICU) for C/C++ 2017-02-13 has an out-of-bounds write caused by a heap-based buffer overflow related to the utf8TextAccess function in common/utext.cpp and the utext_moveIndex32* function (bsc#1034674)

CVE-2017-7867: International Components for Unicode (ICU) for C/C++ 2017-02-13 has an out-of-bounds write caused by a heap-based buffer overflow related to the utf8TextAccess function in common/utext.cpp and the utext_setNativeIndex* function (bsc#1034678)

CVE-2017-14952: Double free in i18n/zonemeta.cpp in International Components for Unicode (ICU) for C/C++ allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted string, aka a 'redundant UVector entry clean up function call' issue (bnc#1067203)

CVE-2017-17484: The ucnv_UTF8FromUTF8 function in ucnv_u8.cpp in International Components for Unicode (ICU) for C/C++ mishandled ucnv_convertEx calls for UTF-8 to UTF-8 conversion, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted string, as demonstrated by ZNC (bnc#1072193)

CVE-2017-15422: An integer overflow in icu during persian calendar date processing could lead to incorrect years shown (bnc#1077999)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

According to the version of the icu package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

  - The ucnv_UTF8FromUTF8 function in ucnv_u8.cpp in     International Components for Unicode (ICU) for C/C++     through 60.1 mishandles ucnv_convertEx calls for UTF-8     to UTF-8 conversion, which allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow     and application crash) or possibly have unspecified     other impact via a crafted string, as demonstrated by     ZNC.(CVE-2017-17484)
