Debian Security Advisory DSA-1631-2                  security@debian.org

Package        : libxml2
Vulnerability  : denial of service
Problem type   : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s)      : CVE-2008-3281

The previous security update of the libxml2 package introduced
some problems with other packages, most notably with librsvg.
This update corrects these problems whilst still fixing the
reported scurity problem.

For reference the text of the previous security announcement
follows:

Andreas Solberg discovered that libxml2, the GNOME XML library,
could be forced to recursively evaluate entities, until available
CPU & memory resources were exhausted.

For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version
2.6.27.dfsg-4.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.6.32.dfsg-3.

We recommend that you upgrade your libxml2 package.


Upgrade instructions
- --------------------

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
        will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
        will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
