Descriptions

The uloc_acceptLanguageFromHTTP function in common/uloc.cpp in International Components for Unicode (ICU) through 57.1 for C/C++ does not ensure that there is a '\0' character at the end of a certain temporary array, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a call with a long httpAcceptLanguage argument.

La función uloc_acceptLanguageFromHTTP en common/uloc.cpp en International Components for Unicode (ICU) hasta la versión 57.1 para C/C++ no asegura que haya un carácter '\0' al final de un determinado array temporal, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (lectura fuera de rango) o posiblemente tener otro impacto no especificado a través de una llamada con un argumento httpAcceptLanguage largo.

A security vulnerability in PHP was addressed by the HPE StoreEver MSL6480 Tape Library firmware version 5.10. The vulnerability could be exploited remotely to allow Unauthorized Disclosure of Information or Denial of Service via the Ethernet Management Interface. Please note that the Management Interface cannot access data stored on tape media, so this vulnerability does not allow for remote unauthorized disclosure of data stored on tape media or remote denial of service. Revision 2 of this advisory.
