+Subject: CVE-2014-5119
+
+Loadable gconv transliteration modules have never worked correctly
+and their implementation contains security vulnerabilities. This
+patch removes this feature.
+
+This fix for use with glibc 2.17 is based on the following
+upstream commit:
+
+https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;h=a1a6a401ab0a
