It was discovered that libxml2 loaded external parameter entities even when

use this flaw to conduct XML External Entity (XXE) attacks, possibly
resulting in a denial of service or an information leak on the system.
(CVE-2014-0191)
The CVE-2014-0191 issue was discovered by Daniel P. Berrange of Red Hat.

contain a backported patch to correct this issue. The desktop must be
