Title:	RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2009:0296
Summary:	Redhat Security Advisory RHSA-2009:0296
Description:	The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2009:0296. The International Components for Unicode (ICU) library provides robust and full-featured Unicode services. A flaw was found in the way ICU processed certain, invalid, encoded data. If an application used ICU to decode malformed, multibyte, character data, it may have been possible to bypass certain content protection mechanisms, or display information in a manner misleading to the user. (CVE-2008-1036) All users of icu should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to resolve these issues. Solution: Please note that this update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2009-0296.html http://www.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/#moderate
