"An update for fribidi is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security
impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base
score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each
vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

A library to handle bidirectional scripts (for example Hebrew,
Arabic), so that the display is done in the proper way, while the text
data itself is always written in logical order.

Security Fix(es) :

* fribidi: buffer overflow in fribidi_get_par_embedding_levels_ex() in
lib/ fribidi-bidi.c leading to denial of service and possible code
execution (CVE-2019-18397)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a
CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to
the CVE page(s) listed in the References section."
