RedHat: RHSA-2017-3384:01 Moderate: liblouis security update
Summary
Liblouis is an open source braille translator and back-translator named in
honor of Louis Braille. It features support for computer and literary
braille, supports contracted and uncontracted translation for many
languages and has support for hyphenation. New languages can easily be
added through tables that support a rule or dictionary based approach.
Liblouis also supports math braille (Nemeth and Marburg).
Security Fix(es):
* A missing fix for one stack-based buffer overflow in findTable() for
CVE-2014-8184 was discovered. An attacker could cause denial of service or
potentially allow arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2017-15101)
Red Hat would like to thank Samuel Thibault for reporting this issue.
