Synopsis ========
A vulnerability was found in libxslt, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code and Denial of Service.
Background ==========
Libxslt is the XSLT C library developed for the GNOME project. XSLT itself is an XML language to define transformations for XML.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 dev-libs/libxslt < 1.1.24 >=3D 1.1.24
Description ===========
Anthony de Almeida Lopes reported a vulnerability in libxslt when handling XSL style-sheet files, which could be exploited to trigger the use of uninitialized memory, e.g. in a call to "free()".
Impact ======
A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to process an XML file using a specially crafted XSL transformation file, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All libxslt users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=3Ddev-libs/libxslt-1.1.24"
