Denial Of Service (DoS)

libxml2.so is vulnerable to Denial Of Service DoS. parser.c does not prevent entity expansion properly which would allow a remote attacker to provide a specially crafted XML file to cause excessive entity substitutions even if entity substituion was disabled, causing a denial of service condition...

Heap-based Buffer Overflow

libxml2.so is vulnerable to heap-based buffer overflow. The xmlDictComputeFastQKey function in dict.c allows context-dependent attackers to obtain a negative offset in the name indexing that is used to randomize dictionary key generation. This can lead to a heap-based buffer overflow that results...

Denial-of-Service (DoS)

libxml2.so is vulnerable to heap-based buffer overflow. The xmlParseXmlDecl function in parser.c allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service condition when an encoding conversion failure occurs which causes the parser to extract more errors during the failure...

Denial-of-Service (DoS)

libxml2.so is vulnerable to denial of service attack. This is due to incorrect entity boundaries and start tags which could lead to out-of-bounds heap read in the xmlParseMisc function in parser.c, allowing a context-dependent attacker to cause a denial of service condition...

XML External Entities (XXE)

libxml2 is vulnerable to XML external entity attacks. The xmlParserHandlePEReference function in parser.c allows external parameter entities to be loaded regardless of whether entity substitution or validation is enabled. This allows an attacker to cause a denial of service condition or an...

Denial Of Service (DoS)

libxml2.so is vulnerable to denial of service DoS attacks. A malicious user can pass an XML file to the xzdecomp function in xzlib.c to cause a process hang that can crash the application...

Denial Of Service (DoS)

libxml2.so is vulnerable to denial of service. A malicious user can pass an XML file to the xmlParseMarkupDecl function in parser.c to cause a buffer over-read that can crash the application or disclose sensitive information in the buffer...

Buffer Over-read

libxml2.so is vulnerable to buffer over-reads. A malicious user can pass an XML file to the xmlSAX2TextNode function in SAX2.c to cause a buffer over-read that can crash the application or reveal sensitive information in the memory...

Out-of-Bounds Read

libxml2.so is vulnerable to out-of-bounds reads. A malicious user can pass XML data with unterminated encoding or incomplete XML declarations to the xmlParseXMLDecl function in parser.c to cause an out-of-bounds heap read...
