Synopsis:	Moderate: icu security update
Issue date:	2009-06-25
CVE Names:	CVE-2009-0153

A flaw was found in the way ICU processed certain, invalid byte
sequences during Unicode conversion. If an application used ICU to
decode malformed, multibyte character data, it may have been possible to
bypass certain content protection mechanisms, or display information in
a manner misleading to the user. (CVE-2009-0153)
