neon did not properly handle embedded NUL characters in X.509 certificates when comparing host names. Attackers could exploit that to spoof SSL servers. (CVE-2009-2408)

Specially crafted XML documents that contain a large number of nested entity references could cause neon to consume large amounts of CPU and memory. (CVE-2009-2473)
