Debian Security Advisory DSA-1762-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Steffen Joeris
April 02, 2009 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : icu
Vulnerability : insufficient input sanitising
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id : CVE-2008-1036


It was discovered that icu, the internal components for Unicode, did
not properly sanitise invalid encoded data, which could lead to cross-
site scripting attacks.


For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 3.8.1-3+lenny1.

For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 3.6-2etch2.

For the testing distribution (squeeze) and the unstable distribution
(sid), this problem has been fixed in version 4.0.1-1.


We recommend that you upgrade your icu packages.


Upgrade instructions
