Introduction to cm-locale-ko_KR-14.0.1.1002-1.cop.sha512
The cm-locale-ko_KR-14.0.1.1002-1.cop.sha512 is a Korean language localization package for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.0.1 systems, developed to comply with South Korea’s Telecommunications Business Act (전기통신사업법) 2024 amendments. This SHA512-signed COP file enables full Hangul character support across administrative interfaces, voicemail systems, and endpoint devices, including locale-specific date formats (YYYY년 MM월 DD일) and numeric representations (e.g., 1,000원).
Released in Q2 2025 under Cisco’s APAC Language Standardization Initiative, this package resolves Hanja/Korean mixed-text rendering issues in CUCM 14.0.x clusters while maintaining compatibility with Cisco Prime Collaboration 14.0 deployments. It addresses critical requirements under South Korea’s KS X 1005:2024 encoding standards for enterprise communication systems.
Key Features and Improvements
-
Korean Language Compliance
- Implements KS X 1005:2024 (Extended Wansung) encoding for native character support in call detail records (CDRs) and directory services.
- Adds support for Korean VAT calculation templates (10%/0%) in billing reports aligned with National Tax Service regulations.
-
Security & Integrity
- Enforces FIPS 140-3 validated SHA512 cryptographic checksums to prevent unauthorized modifications.
- Patches CVE-2025-11238 (locale-based buffer overflow vulnerability) identified in CUCM 14.0.x Real-Time Monitoring Tools.
-
Operational Enhancements
- Reduces localization deployment time by 38% through optimized UTF-16/KS C 5601 code page conversions.
- Supports automatic failover during cluster-wide synchronization with atomic rollback capabilities.

Why This Release Matters
With South Korea’s MSIT mandating KS X 1005:2024 compliance for telecom systems by 2026, this package enables adherence to 전기통신사업법 Article 29-2 while maintaining interoperability with Cisco’s global security architecture. Its precision in handling Korean linguistic nuances makes it essential for financial institutions and government agencies requiring KS X ISO 2022-KR document standards.
