  files. It includes support to read, modify, and write XML and HTML files.

  A denial of service flaw was found in the way libxml2 processes certain
  content. If an application linked against libxml2 processes malformed XML
  content, it could cause the application to stop responding. (CVE-2008-3281)
  
  Red Hat would like to thank Andreas Solberg for responsibly disclosing this
  issue.
  
  All users of libxml2 are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
  which contain a backported patch to resolve this issue.";
