 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.
