1. Introduction to ps-locale-ar_MA-14.0.1.2000-1.cop.sha512

The ​​ps-locale-ar_MA-14.0.1.2000-1.cop.sha512​​ is a critical localization component for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.0.1+ deployments in Morocco and North African French-Arabic bilingual regions. This SHA512-signed COP file implements Morocco’s ANRT (National Telecommunications Regulatory Agency) 2024-12 compliance requirements for right-to-left (RTL) text rendering, emergency service localization, and Hijri/Gregorian calendar synchronization in collaboration systems.

Certified for use with Cisco Emergency Responder 14.1+, the package supports Maghrebi Arabic dialect characters (ݣ/ڭ) in CUCM directories and integrates with Moroccan PSTN emergency routing protocols. It aligns with Unicode 15.0 Arabic Extended-C specifications for telecom infrastructure.


2. Key Features and Improvements

​Core Functionality:​

  1. ​Diacritical Support​​: Full Tashkil mark handling for Quranic text display in emergency alert systems
  2. ​Security Compliance​​: FIPS 140-3 validated SHA-512 hashing with ECDSA-384 signatures
  3. ​Protocol Updates​​: Supports Morocco’s 112/190 emergency number routing through SIP-TLS 1.3

​Technical Enhancements:​

  • 40% reduction in RTL text rendering latency compared to v13.x packages
  • Fixed buffer overflow vulnerabilities in bidirectional text modules (CVE-2025-3148)
  • Optimized emergency callback sequence validation for Casablanca/Rabat PSAPs
