In doProlog in xmlparse.c in Expat (aka libexpat) before 2.4.3, an integer overflow exists for m_groupSize.(CVE-2021-46143)

lookup in xmlparse.c in Expat (aka libexpat) before 2.4.3 has an integer overflow.(CVE-2022-22825)

nextScaffoldPart in xmlparse.c in Expat (aka libexpat) before 2.4.3 has an integer overflow.(CVE-2022-22826)

storeAtts in xmlparse.c in Expat (aka libexpat) before 2.4.3 has an integer overflow.(CVE-2022-22827)
