Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:026
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________
Package : icu
Date : January 25, 2008
Affected: 2008.0
_______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
Will Drewry reported multiple flaws in how libicu processed certain
malformed regular expressions. If an application linked against
libicu, such as OpenOffice.org, processed a carefully-crafted regular
expression, it could potentially cause the execution of arbitrary
code with the privileges of the user running the application.
The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
