libxml2-2.7.6-21.1.0.1.AXS4

Description:

This library allows to manipulate XML files. It includes support
to read, modify and write XML and HTML files. There is DTDs support
this includes parsing and validation even with complex DtDs, either
at parse time or later once the document has been modified. The output
can be a simple SAX stream or and in-memory DOM like representations.
In this case one can use the built-in XPath and XPointer implementation
to select subnodes or ranges. A flexible Input/Output mechanism is
available, with existing HTTP and FTP modules and combined to an
URI library.

libxml2, as used in Apple iOS before 9.3.2, OS X before 10.11.5, tvOS
before 9.2.1, and watchOS before 2.2.1, allows remote attackers to
execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory

CVE-2016-3627
The xmlStringGetNodeList function in tree.c in libxml2 2.9.3 and
earlier, when used in recovery mode, allows context-dependent
attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite recursion, stack
consumption, and application crash) via a crafted XML document.
CVE-2016-3705
The (1) xmlParserEntityCheck and (2) xmlParseAttValueComplex functions
in parser.c in libxml2 2.9.3 do not properly keep track of the
recursion depth, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a
denial of service (stack consumption and application crash) via a
crafted XML document containing a large number of nested entity
references.
CVE-2016-4447
The xmlParseElementDecl function in parser.c in libxml2 before 2.9.4
allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service
(heap-based buffer underread and application crash) via a crafted
file, involving xmlParseName.
