1. Summary:

An update for ocaml is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security
impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base
score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each
vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client Optional (v. 7) - x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ComputeNode Optional (v. 7) - x86_64

3. Description:

OCaml is a high-level, strongly-typed, functional, and object-oriented
programming language from the ML family of languages. The ocaml packages
contain two batch compilers (a fast bytecode compiler and an optimizing
native-code compiler), an interactive top level system, parsing tools
(Lex, Yacc, Camlp4), a replay debugger, a documentation generator, and
a comprehensive library.

Security Fix(es):

* OCaml versions 4.02.3 and earlier have a runtime bug that, on 64-bit
platforms, causes size arguments to internal memmove calls to be
sign-extended from 32- to 64-bits before being passed to the memmove
function. This leads to arguments between 2GiB and 4GiB being interpreted
as larger than they are (specifically, a bit below 2^64), causing a
buffer overflow. Further, arguments between 4GiB and 6GiB are interpreted
as 4GiB smaller than they should be, causing a possible information
leak. (CVE-2015-8869)
