Rebuilt
- patches/packages/libxml2-2.6.32-i486-3_slack12.1.tgz
Patched a heap-based buffer underflow in the xmlParseAttValueComplex
function in parser.c in libxml2 2.9.0 and earlier that could allow a
remote attacker to cause a denial of service or possibly execute
arbitrary code via crafted entities in an XML document.
