- CVEs with nessus.description==A flaw in libxml2 versions prior to 2.6.6 was found by Yuuichi Teranishi. When fetching a remote source via FTP or HTTP, libxml2 uses special parsing routines that can overflow a buffer if passed a very long URL. In the event that the attacker can find a program that uses libxml2 which parses remote resources and allows them to influence the URL, this flaw could be used to execute arbitrary code.
The updated packages provide a backported fix to correct the problem.
