Multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities in libxml2 2.9.0 and possibly
other versions might allow context-dependent attackers to cause a
denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via
vectors related to the (1) htmlParseChunk and (2) xmldecl_done
functions, as demonstrated by a buffer overflow in the
xmlBufGetInputBase function.

Comment 1 David Walser 2013-04-26 16:04:30 CEST
This was already fixed in libxml2-2.9.0-5.mga3 in Cauldron.

This also does not affect the libxml2 version in Mageia 2.
