Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:192

http://www.mandriva.com/security/

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Package : libxml2

Date : September 11, 2008

Affected: 2007.1, 2008.0, 2008.1, Corporate 3.0, Corporate 4.0

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Problem Description:

 

A heap-based buffer overflow was found in how 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).

 

The updated packages have been patched to prevent this issue.

As well, the patch to fix CVE-2008-3281 has been updated to remove

the hard-coded entity limit that was set to 5M, instead using XML

entity density heuristics. Many thanks to Daniel Veillard of Red Hat

for his hard work in tracking down and dealing with the edge cases

discovered with the initial fix to this issue.
