Details

USN-3274-1 fixed a vulnerability in icu. This update provides the
corresponding update for Ubuntu 12.04 ESM.

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.
