CVE-2017-9050

libxml2 20904-GITv2.9.4-16-g0741801 is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer over-read in the xmlDictAddString function in dict.c. This vulnerability causes programs that use libxml2, such as PHP, to crash. This vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2016-1839...

CVE-2017-9047

A buffer overflow was discovered in libxml2 20904-GITv2.9.4-16-g0741801. The function xmlSnprintfElementContent in valid.c is supposed to recursively dump the element content definition into a char buffer 'buf' of size 'size'. The variable len is assigned strlenbuf. If the content-type is...

Denial Of Service (DoS) Through Embedded C Library

The nokogiri gem is using libxml2 which is vulnerable to CVE-2016-3627. CVE-2016-3627 is a denial of service DoS vulnerability. It is possible because the xmlStringGetNodeList and xmlParserEntityCheck functions fail to detect a recursive loop when it is used in recovery mode, causing stack...

Use-after-free Vulnerability

nokogiri gem is using libxml2 which is vulnerable to use-after-free vulnerability. The vulnerability exists because libxml2 fails to properly validate and handle the attribute strings in the xmlSAX2AttributeNs function which allows an attacker to cause a memory corruption which leads to an...
