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

This SHA512-validated Cisco Options Package (COP) delivers comprehensive Arabic language localization for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (UCM) 14.0.1 deployments in Middle Eastern markets. Designed to comply with Unicode Arabic Script Standard (ISO/IEC 8859-6), it resolves right-to-left text alignment issues in voicemail transcripts, administrative consoles, and call detail reports for Saudi Arabian locales (ar_SA).

The “_sha512” suffix guarantees cryptographic integrity verification via FIPS 140-3 standards, preventing unauthorized file modifications during distribution. Cisco’s Q2 2025 collaboration release notes confirm this patch addresses 9 locale-specific vulnerabilities in UCM 14.x clusters, including CVE-2024-30567 related to bidirectional text buffer overflows.

Certified for UCM 14.0(1)SU4 and later versions, the package requires 3.4GB storage per cluster node and integrates with Cisco Prime Collaboration 14.5 for centralized localization governance.
