      <title>USN-4991-1 — libxml2 vulnerabilities</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/usn-4991-1</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Ubuntu:Pro:14.04:LTS: libxml2, Ubuntu:Pro:16.04:LTS: libxml2, Ubuntu:18.04:LTS: libxml2, Ubuntu:20.04:LTS: libxml2&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yunho Kim discovered that libxml2 incorrectly handled certain error
conditions. A remote attacker could exploit this with a crafted XML file to
cause a denial of service, or possibly cause libxml2 to expose sensitive
information. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM, and Ubuntu 16.04
ESM. (CVE-2017-8872)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Zhipeng Xie discovered that libxml2 incorrectly handled certain XML
schemas. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial
of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM, Ubuntu 16.04 ESM,
and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. (CVE-2019-20388)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It was discovered that libxml2 incorrectly handled invalid UTF-8 input. A
remote attacker could possibly exploit this with a crafted XML file to
cause libxml2 to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only
affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM, Ubuntu 16.04 ESM, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04
LTS and Ubuntu 20.10. (CVE-2020-24977)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It was discovered that libxml2 incorrectly handled invalid UTF-8 input. A
remote attacker could possibly exploit this with a crafted XML file to
cause libxml2 to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2021-3517)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It was discovered that libxml2 did not properly handle certain crafted XML
files. A local attacker could exploit this with a crafted input to cause
libxml2 to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute
arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-3516, CVE-2021-3518)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It was discovered that libxml2 incorrectly handled error states. A remote
attacker could exploit this with a…&lt;/p&gt;</description>
