A new ICU vulnerability update is available for Ubuntu Linux. Here the announcement:
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-846-1 October 08, 2009
icu vulnerability
CVE-2009-0153
===========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 8.04 LTS
Ubuntu 8.10
Ubuntu 9.04
This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:
Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
libicu38 3.8-6ubuntu0.2
Ubuntu 8.10:
libicu38 3.8.1-2ubuntu0.2
Ubuntu 9.04:
libicu38 3.8.1-3ubuntu1.1
After a standard system upgrade you need to restart applications linked
against libicu, such as OpenOffice.org, to effect the necessary changes.
Details follow:
It was discovered that ICU did not properly handle invalid byte sequences
during Unicode conversion. If an application using ICU processed crafted
data, content security mechanisms could be bypassed, potentially leading to
cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.
Updated packages for Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
