This can be exploited to e.g. exhaust all available memory and CPU resources by tricking an application using Libxml2 into processing specially crafted XML documents. + 2) A boundary error in the processing of long XML entity names in parser.c can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow when specially crafted XML content is parsed. + 3) A vulnerability is caused due to an error in the processing of XML files and can be exploited to exhaust all available memory via a specially crafted XML file containing a predefined entity inside an entity definition. + Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.</desc> + </fsa> + <fsa> <id>543</id> <date>2008-10-22</date> <author>Miklos Vajna</author> _______________________________________________ Frugalware-git mailing list Frugalware-git@frugalware.org http://frugalware.org/mailman/listinfo/frugalware-git
