CVE-2014-9911 ICU vulnerabilities
Title: ICU vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in ICU.
It was discovered that ICU incorrectly handled certain memory operations
when processing data. If an application using ICU processed crafted data,
a remote attacker could possibly cause it to crash or potentially execute
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program.
Instructions: In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.

If there is an upstream icu bug, it is still private. I have attempted to repro on rhel-7.2 based on variants of the PHP function, but no success so far.
PHP upstream crash report shows a stack overflow in Locale::Locale(char*). RHEL builds icu with -fstack-protector, which prevents traditional code execution vectors through stack sma
