[CLSA-2026:1789643209] alt-libxml2: Fix of 2 CVEs
Type:
security
Severity:
Critical
Release date:
2026-09-17 11:07:00 UTC
Description:
- CVE-2024-56171: use-after-free after xmlSchemaItemListAdd in the XML Schema identity-constraint code (xmlSchemaIDCFillNodeTables, xmlSchemaBubbleIDCNodeTables) - CVE-2026-6653: use-after-free in xmlParseInternalSubset; xmlPushInput() returned -1 for a parameter entity input it had already pushed, so the caller freed an input stream that ctxt->input still pointed at. Reachable through the entity amplification check carried by 2.10.2 for CVE-2021-3541, which this keeps in place. Also guards the xmlSkipBlankChars() loop on XML_PARSER_EOF (upstream e129c1d1), without which the same document spins at 100% CPU once the input is no longer freed
