CVE-2007-4770

libicu in International Components for Unicode (ICU) 3.8.1 and earlier attempts to process backreferences to the nonexistent capture group zero (aka 0), which might allow context-dependent attackers to read from, or write to, out-of-bounds memory locations, related to corruption of REStackFrames.

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.");
