CVE-2017-7868
International Components for Unicode (ICU) for C/C++ before 2017-02-13 has an out-of-bounds write caused by a heap-based buffer overflow related to the utf8TextAccess function in common/utext.cpp and the utext_moveIndex32* function.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.45%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
