GHSA-JW29-RMWQ-XP9M

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-14 01:07 – Updated: 2025-04-12 13:02

Details

The uloc_acceptLanguageFromHTTP function in common/uloc.cpp in International Components for Unicode (ICU) through 57.1 for C/C++ does not ensure that there is a '\0' character at the end of a certain temporary array, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a call with a long httpAcceptLanguage argument.

Severity ?

9.8 (Critical)
