The open source project glibc, which is a core library used by all applications, recently contained a critical security vulnerability affecting its unicode character converting functionality.

Applications using glibc to translate character encodings were affected by this if a malicious input string were processed by the application.

JCloud software and third party open source software use iconv character translations in some products like email handling and CMS web applications.
