It was discovered that libxml2 loaded external parameter entities even when entity substitution was disabled. A remote attacker able to provide a specially crafted XML file to an application linked against libxml2 could use this flaw to conduct XML External Entity attacks, possibly resulting in a denial of service or an information leak on the system. An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the way libxml2 detected the end of an XML file. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted XML file that, when processed by an application linked against libxml2, could cause the application to crash.

A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted XML file containing an external entity expansion, when processed would lead to excessive CPU consumption (denial of service.This a different flaw from CVE-2013-0338. parser.c in libxml2 before 2.9.0, as used in Google Chrome before 28.0.1500.71 and other products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a document that ends abruptly, related to the lack of certain checks for the XML_PARSER_EOF state. The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
