| Description: | OCaml is a high-level, strongly-typed, functional, and object-oriented programming language from the ML family of languages. The ocaml packages contain two batch compilers (a fast bytecode compiler and an optimizing native-code compiler), an interactive top level system, parsing tools (Lex, Yacc, Camlp4), a replay debugger, a documentation generator, and a comprehensive library.
Security Fix(es):
An integer conversion flaw was found in the way OCaml's String handled its length. Certain operations on an excessively long String could trigger a buffer overflow or result in an information leak. (CVE-2015-8869)
