CVE-2017-7867 ICU vulnerabilities
Title: ICU vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in ICU.
USN-3274-1 fixed a vulnerability in icu. This update provides the
corresponding update for Ubuntu 12.04 ESM.
Original advisory details:
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.

Backport CVE-2017-15422 to ESR52

CVE-2017-15422 [MEDIUM] Backport CVE-2017-15422 to ESR52
Backport CVE-2017-15422 to ESR52
Today, I noticed that Ubuntu updated its copy of ICU 57 to include the fix for CVE-2017-15422. From what I can tell, this was an integer overflow bug which was fixed late last year:
https://ssl.icu-project.org/trac/changeset/40654
Fx59+ are already fixed via the ICU 60.1 update. However, ESR52 is using ICU 58.2 still and is vulnerable from what I can tell.
Discussion:
Might not be a bad idea to look for any other ICU security backports that might have landed since 58.2 was shipped too.

Do we know any details about the severity of the vulnerability? For example can it be used for remote code execution etc. ?
