CVE-2007-4771 Heap-based buffer overflow in the doInterval function in regexcmp.cpp in libicu in International Components for Unicode (ICU) 3.8.1 and earlier allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) and possibly have unspecified other impact via a regular expression that writes a large amount of data to the backtracking stack. For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 3.6-2etch1. For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 3.8-6. We recommend that you upgrade your libicu package. Upgrade instructions - --------------------wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file.
