The Xerces-C XML parser mishandles certain kinds of malformed input documents,

overflows can manifest as a segmentation fault or as memory corruption during
a parse operation. The bugs allow for a denial of service attack in many
applications by an unauthenticated attacker, and could conceivably result in
remote code execution (CVE-2016-0729).");
