Title: | USN-815-1 -- libxml2 vulnerabilities | ||
Description: | It was discovered that libxml2 did not correctly handle root XML document element DTD definitions. If a user were tricked into processing a specially crafted XML document, a remote attacker could cause the application linked against libxml2 to crash, leading to a denial of service. It was discovered that libxml2 did not correctly parse Notation and Enumeration attribute types. If a user were tricked into processing a specially crafted XML document, a remote attacker could cause the application linked against libxml2 to crash, leading to a denial of service. USN-644-1 fixed a vulnerability in libxml2. This advisory provides the corresponding update for Ubuntu 9.04. Original advisory details: It was discovered that libxml2 did not correctly handle long entity names. If a user were tricked into processing a specially crafted XML document, a remote attacker could execute arbitrary code with user privileges or cause the application linked against libxml2 to crash, leading to a denial of service | ||

Title: | RHSA-2008:0884 -- libxml2 security update (Important) | ||
Description: | Updated libxml2 packages that fix a security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, and 5. This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. The libxml2 packages provide a library that allows you to manipulate XML files. It includes support to read, modify, and write XML and HTML files. A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way libxml2 handled long XML entity names. If an application linked against libxml2 processed untrusted malformed XML content, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2008-3529) All users of libxml2 are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to resolve this issue. | ||
