Summary
Updated icu packages fix security vulnerability
Details

It was discovered that ICU Layout Engine was missing multiple boundary and error return checks. These could lead to buffer overflows and memory corruption. A specially crafted font file could cause an application using ICU to parse untrusted fonts to crash and, possibly, execute arbitrary code (CVE-2015-4844).
