"According to the versions of the libxml2 packages installed, the
EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following
vulnerabilities :

  - dict.c in libxml2 allows remote attackers to cause a
    denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read and
    application crash) via an unexpected character
    immediately after the '<!DOCTYPE html' substring in a
    crafted HTML document.(CVE-2015-8806)

  - libxml2 2.9.4, when used in recover mode, allows remote
    attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer
    dereference) via a crafted XML document. NOTE: The
    maintainer states 'I would disagree of a CVE with the
    Recover parsing option which should only be used for
    manual recovery at least for XML
    parser.'(CVE-2017-5969)

  - The htmlParseTryOrFinish function in HTMLparser.c in
    libxml2 2.9.4 allows attackers to cause a denial of
    service (buffer over-read) or information
    disclosure.(CVE-2017-8872)

  - libxml2 20904-GITv2.9.4-16-g0741801 is vulnerable to a
    stack-based buffer overflow. The function
    xmlSnprintfElementContent in valid.c is supposed to
    recursively dump the element content definition into a
    char buffer 'buf' of size 'size'. At the end of the
    routine, the function may strcat two more characters
    without checking whether the current strlen(buf) + 2 <
    size. This vulnerability causes programs that use
    libxml2, such as PHP, to crash.(CVE-2017-9048)

  - libxml2 20904-GITv2.9.4-16-g0741801 is vulnerable to a
    heap-based buffer over-read in the
    xmlDictComputeFastKey function in dict.c. This
    vulnerability causes programs that use libxml2, such as
    PHP, to crash. This vulnerability exists because of an
    incomplete fix for libxml2 Bug 759398.(CVE-2017-9049)

  - libxml2 20904-GITv2.9.4-16-g0741801 is vulnerable to a
    heap-based buffer over-read in the xmlDictAddString
    function in dict.c. This vulnerability causes programs
    that use libxml2, such as PHP, to crash. This
    vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for
    CVE-2016-1839.(CVE-2017-9050)

  - The xz_decomp function in xzlib.c in libxml2 2.9.8, if
    --with-lzma is used, allows remote attackers to cause a
    denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted XML
    file that triggers LZMA_MEMLIMIT_ERROR, as demonstrated
    by xmllint, a different vulnerability than
    CVE-2015-8035.(CVE-2018-9251)

    descriptionThis update for libxml2 fixes the following security issues : - CVE-2018-9251: The xz_decomp function allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted XML file that triggers LZMA_MEMLIMIT_ERROR, as demonstrated by xmllint (bsc#1088279). - CVE-2018-14567: Prevent denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted XML file that triggers LZMA_MEMLIMIT_ERROR, as demonstrated by xmllint (bsc#1105166). - CVE-2018-14404: Prevent NULL pointer dereference in the xmlXPathCompOpEval() function when parsing an invalid XPath expression in the XPATH_OP_AND or XPATH_OP_OR case leading to a denial of service attack (bsc#1102046). - CVE-2017-18258: The xz_head function allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted LZMA file, because the decoder functionality did not restrict memory usage to what is required for a legitimate file (bsc#1088601). This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-12-SP2:Update update project.

    descriptionAccording to the versions of the libxml2 packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - libxml2 20904-GITv2.9.4-16-g0741801 is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer over-read in the xmlDictAddString function in dict.c. This vulnerability causes programs that use libxml2, such as PHP, to crash. This vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2016-1839.(CVE-2017-9050) - libxml2 20904-GITv2.9.4-16-g0741801 is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer over-read in the xmlDictComputeFastKey function in dict.c. This vulnerability causes programs that use libxml2, such as PHP, to crash. This vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for libxml2 Bug 759398.(CVE-2017-9049) - libxml2 20904-GITv2.9.4-16-g0741801 is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow. The function xmlSnprintfElementContent in valid.c is supposed to recursively dump the element content definition into a char buffer

    descriptionAccording to the versions of the libxml2 packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - This library allows to manipulate XML files. It includes support to read, modify and write XML and HTML files. There is DTDs support this includes parsing and validation even with complex DtDs, either at parse time or later once the document has been modified. The output can be a simple SAX stream or and in-memory DOM like representations. In this case one can use the built-in XPath and XPointer implementation to select sub nodes or ranges. A flexible Input/Output mechanism is available, with existing HTTP and FTP modules and combined to an URI library.Security Fix(es):** DISPUTED ** libxml2 2.9.4, when used in recover mode, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via a crafted XML document.
