Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.60258
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:026 (icu)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to icu
announced via advisory MDVSA-2008:026.

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.

Affected: 2008.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
