                   Red Hat Security Advisory

Synopsis:          Moderate: ocaml security update
Advisory ID:       RHSA-2017:0565-01
Product:           Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Advisory URL:      https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017-0565.html
Issue date:        2017-03-21
CVE Names:         CVE-2015-8869 
=====================================================================

1. Summary:

An update for ocaml is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which
gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from
the CVE link(s) in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop Optional (v. 6) - i386, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux HPC Node Optional (v. 6) - x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Optional (v. 6) - i386, ppc64, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation Optional (v. 6) - i386, x86_64

3. Description:

OCaml is a high-level, strongly-typed, functional, and object-oriented
programming language from the ML family of languages. The ocaml packages
contain two batch compilers (a fast bytecode compiler and an optimizing
native-code compiler), an interactive top level system, parsing tools (Lex,
Yacc, Camlp4), a replay debugger, a documentation generator, and a
comprehensive library.

Security Fix(es):

* An integer conversion flaw was found in the way OCaml's String handled
its length. Certain operations on an excessively long String could trigger
a buffer overflow or result in an information leak. (CVE-2015-8869)

Additional Changes:

For detailed information on changes in this release, see the Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.9 Release Notes and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.9
