Detail

libxml2 through 2.9.1 does not properly handle external entities expansion unless an application developer uses the xmlSAX2ResolveEntity or xmlSetExternalEntityLoader function, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption), send HTTP requests to intranet servers, or read arbitrary files via a crafted XML document, aka an XML External Entity (XXE) issue. NOTE: it could be argued that because libxml2 already provides the ability to disable external entity expansion, the responsibility for resolving this issue lies with application developers; according to this argument, this entry should be REJECTed and each affected application would need its own CVE.

Title: DSA-2652-1 libxml2 - external entity expansion
Description: Brad Hill of iSEC Partners discovered that many XML implementations are vulnerable to external entity expansion issues, which can be used for various purposes such as firewall circumvention, disguising an IP address, and denial-of-service. libxml2 was susceptible to these problems when performing string substitution during entity expansion.

Title: SUSE-SU-2013:0743-1 -- Security update for libxml2
Description: libxml2 has been updated to fix two security bugs. * CVE-2013-0338: Internal entity expansion within XML was not bounded, leading to simple small XML files being able to cause "out of memory" denial of service conditions. * CVE-2012-5134: Heap-based buffer underflow in the xmlParseAttValueComplex function in parser.c in libxml2 allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted entities in an XML document.
