The ucnv_UTF8FromUTF8 function in ucnv_u8.cpp in International Components
for Unicode (ICU) for C/C++ through 60.1 mishandles ucnv_convertEx calls
for UTF-8 to UTF-8 conversion, which allows remote attackers to cause a
denial of service (stack-based buffer overflow and application crash) or
possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted string, as
demonstrated by ZNC.
