CVE-2012-6656 (debian_linux, glibc, ubuntu_linux)

iconvdata/ibm930.c in GNU C Library (aka glibc) before 2.16 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a multibyte character value of “0xffff” to the iconv function when converting IBM930 encoded data to UTF-8.
