  <description>icu was updated to fix two security issues.

These security issues were fixed:
- CVE-2014-8147: The resolveImplicitLevels function in common/ubidi.c in the Unicode Bidirectional
  Algorithm implementation in ICU4C in International Components for Unicode (ICU) used an integer
  data type that is inconsistent with a header file, which allowed remote attackers to cause a
  denial of service (incorrect malloc followed by invalid free) or possibly execute arbitrary code
  via crafted text (bsc#929629).
- CVE-2014-8146: The resolveImplicitLevels function in common/ubidi.c in the Unicode Bidirectional
  Algorithm implementation in ICU4C in International Components for Unicode (ICU) did not properly
  track directionally isolated pieces of text, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of
  service (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted text
  (bsc#929629).
