RedHat: RHSA-2022-1539:01 Important: xmlrpc-c security update
Summary
XML-RPC is a remote procedure call (RPC) protocol that uses XML to encode
its calls and HTTP as a transport mechanism. The xmlrpc-c packages provide
a network protocol to allow a client program to make a simple RPC (remote
procedure call) over the Internet. It converts an RPC into an XML document,
sends it to a remote server using HTTP, and gets back the response in XML.
Security Fix(es):
* expat: Malformed 2- and 3-byte UTF-8 sequences can lead to arbitrary code
execution (CVE-2022-25235)
