Rauli Kaksonen, Tero Rontti and Jukka Taimisto discovered several
vulnerabilities in libxml2, a library for parsing and handling XML data
files, which can lead to denial of service conditions or possibly arbitrary
code execution in the application using the library. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:
For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.6.27.dfsg-6+etch1.
For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.6.32.dfsg-5+lenny1.
For the testing (squeeze) and unstable (sid) distribution, this problem
will be fixed soon.
We recommend that you upgrade your libxml2 packages.
