ICU updated to 58.1, Fixing CVE-2016-7415
Closed, WontfixPublic

Description

A bug has been discovered on ICU

CVE-2016-7415

I updated the package from 57.1 to 58.1, everything should be fine.

Please tell me if I misunderstood (once again) the process for creating updated packages and patches :)

Event Timeline

57.1 to 58.1 represents an ABI break

Until this becomes available there is no patch to backport: http://bugs.icu-project.org/trac/ticket/12745

Also note Solus builds with -fstack-protector-strong so the calling application would crash vs represent an actual security
exploit. I'll follow this.
