Debian: DSA-2128-1: New libxml2 packages fix potential code execution
Summary
Bui Quang Minh discovered that libxml2, a library for parsing and
handling XML data files, does not well process a malformed XPATH,
causing crash and allowing arbitrary code execution.
For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.6.32.dfsg-5+lenny2.
For the testing (squeeze) and unstable (sid) distribution, this problem
has been fixed in version 2.7.8.dfsg-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your libxml2 package.
