+- update to 2.8.1
+   (bsc#1264713, CVE-2026-45186,
+    bsc#1262263, CVE-2026-41080):
+  * Fix quadratic runtime from attribute name
+    collision checks that allowed denial of service attacks
+    through moderately sized crafted XML input (CWE-407).
+    Please note that a layer of compression around XML can
+    significantly reduce the minimum attack payload size.
+  * CVE-2026-41080 -- The existing hash flooding
+    protection only used 4 to 8 bytes of entropy for
+  * a salt, when 16 bytes of salt are supported by the
+  * implementation of SipHash used by Expat. Now full 16 bytes
+  * of entropy are used to improve protection against hash
+  * flooding attacks.
+  * Existing API function XML_SetHashSalt is now deprecated
+  * because of its limitations, and its use should be
+  * considered a vulnerability. Please either use the new API
+  * function XML_SetHashSalt16Bytes (with known-high-quality
+  * entropy input only!) instead, or leave the derivation of
+  * a 16-bytes hash salt from high quality entropy to Expat's
+  * internal machinery (by *not* calling either of the two
+  * XML_SetHashSalt* functions).
