MDKSA-2004:018 - Updated libxml2 packages fix vulnerability



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

 _______________________________________________________________________

                 Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package name:           libxml2
 Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2004:018
 Date:                   March 3rd, 2004

 Affected versions:      9.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1
 ______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 A flaw in libxml2 versions prior to 2.6.6 was found by Yuuichi
 Teranishi.  When fetching a remote source via FTP or HTTP, libxml2
 uses special parsing routines that can overflow a buffer if passed a
 very long URL.  In the event that the attacker can find a program that
 uses libxml2 which parses remote resources and allows them to
 influence the URL, this flaw could be used to execute arbitrary code.
 
 The updated packages provide a backported fix to correct the problem.
