Description Quality Assurance univentionstaff 2020-09-14 09:30:48 CEST
New Debian libxml2 2.9.4+dfsg1-2.2+deb9u3 fixes:
This update addresses the following issues:
* Out-of-bounds read in htmlParseTryOrFinish (CVE-2017-8872)
* denial of service in xz_head function in xzlib.c (CVE-2017-18258)
* NULL pointer dereference in xpath.c:xmlXPathCompOpEval() can allow  attackers to cause a denial of service (CVE-2018-14404)
* Infinite loop when --with-lzma is used allows for denial of service via  crafted XML file (CVE-2018-14567)
* memory leak in xmlParseBalancedChunkMemoryRecover in parser.c  (CVE-2019-19956)
* memory leak in xmlSchemaPreRun in xmlschemas.c (CVE-2019-20388)
* infinite loop in xmlStringLenDecodeEntities in some end-of-file situations  (CVE-2020-7595)
* GNOME project libxml2 v2.9.10 and earlier have a global Buffer Overflow  vulnerability in xmlEncodeEntitiesInternal at libxml2/entities.c. The issue  has been fixed in commit 8e7c20a1 (20910-GITv2.9.10-103-g8e7c20a1).  (CVE-2020-24977)

+2.9.4+dfsg1-2.2+deb9u3 [Wed, 09 Sep 2020 22:06:27 +0200] Markus Koschany <apo@debian.org>:
+
+  * Non-maintainer upload by the LTS team.
+  * Fix CVE-2017-8872:
+    Global buffer-overflow in the htmlParseTryOrFinish function.
+  * Fix CVE-2019-20388:
+    A memory leak was found in the xmlSchemaValidateStream function of libxml2.
+    Applications that use this library may be vulnerable to memory not being
+    freed leading to a denial of service.
+  * Fix CVE-2020-24977:
+    Out-of-bounds read restricted to xmllint --htmlout.
+  * Fix CVE-2020-7595:
+    Infinite loop in xmlStringLenDecodeEntities can cause a denial of service.
+  * Fix CVE-2017-18258:
+    The xz_head function in libxml2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial
+    of service (memory consumption) via a crafted LZMA file, because the
+    decoder functionality does not restrict memory usage to what is required
+    for a legitimate file.
+  * Fix CVE-2018-14404:
+    A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability exists in the
+    xpath.c:xmlXPathCompOpEval() function of libxml2 when parsing an invalid
+    XPath expression in the XPATH_OP_AND or XPATH_OP_OR case. Applications
+    processing untrusted XSL format inputs may be vulnerable to a denial of
+    service attack.
+  * Fix CVE-2018-14567:
+    If --with-lzma is used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
+    service (infinite loop) via a crafted XML file.
+  * Fix CVE-2019-19956:
+    The xmlParseBalancedChunkMemoryRecover has a memory leak related to
+    newDoc->oldNs.
