Summary

libxml2, possibly before 2.5.0, does not properly detect recursion during entity expansion, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a crafted XML document containing a large number of nested entity references, aka the "billion laughs attack."

    descriptionAn updated jabberd package that fixes one security issue is now available for Red Hat Network Satellite 5.4.1 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having low security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. This package provides jabberd 2, an Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) server used for XML based communication. It was found that the jabberd daemon did not properly detect recursion during entity expansion. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted XML file containing a large number of nested entity references, which once processed by the jabberd daemon, could lead to a denial of service (excessive memory and CPU consumption). (CVE-2011-1755) Red Hat would like to thank Nico Golde of the Debian Security Team for reporting this issue. The Debian Security Team acknowledges Wouter Coekaerts as the original reporter. Users of Red Hat Network Satellite 5.4.1 are advised to upgrade to this updated jabberd package, which resolves this issue. For this update to take effect, Red Hat Network Satellite must be restarted. Refer to the Solution section for details.

    descriptionMultiple security vulnerabilities has been identified and fixed in apr and apr-util : Multiple integer overflows in the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) library and the Apache Portable Utility library (aka APR-util) 0.9.x and 1.3.x allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors that trigger crafted calls to the (1) allocator_alloc or (2) apr_palloc function in memory/unix/apr_pools.c in APR; or crafted calls to the (3) apr_rmm_malloc, (4) apr_rmm_calloc, or (5) apr_rmm_realloc function in misc/apr_rmm.c in APR-util; leading to buffer overflows. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third-party information (CVE-2009-2412).

    descriptionUpdated libxml2 packages that fix various security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1. This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. The libxml2 packages provide a library that allows you to manipulate XML files. It includes support to read, modify, and write XML and HTML files. A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way libxml2 handled long XML entity names. If an application linked against libxml2 processed untrusted malformed XML content, it could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2008-3529) A denial of service flaw was found in the way libxml2 processed certain content. If an application linked against libxml2 processed malformed XML content, it could cause the application to use an excessive amount of CPU time and memory, and stop responding. (CVE-2003-1564) All users of libxml2 are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to resolve these issues.

    descriptionAccording to the version of the qt packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability : - Qt through 5.14 allows an exponential XML entity expansion attack via a crafted SVG document that is mishandled in QXmlStreamReader, a related issue to CVE-2003-1564.(CVE-2015-9541) Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

    descriptionAn updated jabberd package that fixes one security issue is now available for Red Hat Network Proxy 5.4.1 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having low security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. This package provides jabberd 2, an Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) server used for XML based communication. It was found that the jabberd daemon did not properly detect recursion during entity expansion. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted XML file containing a large number of nested entity references, which once processed by the jabberd daemon, could lead to a denial of service (excessive memory and CPU consumption). (CVE-2011-1755) Red Hat would like to thank Nico Golde of the Debian Security Team for reporting this issue. The Debian Security Team acknowledges Wouter Coekaerts as the original reporter. Users of Red Hat Network Proxy 5.4.1 are advised to upgrade to this updated jabberd package, which resolves this issue. For this update to take effect, Red Hat Network Proxy must be restarted. Refer to the Solution section for details.
