SUSE update for libxml2

1) Cross-site scripting

EUVDB-ID: #VU66123

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 5.3 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2016-3709

CWE-ID: CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.

Mitigation

Update the affected package libxml2 to the latest version.

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-40303

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in parse.c when processing content when XML_PARSE_HUGE is set. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger an integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

3) Resource management error

EUVDB-ID: #VU68829

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-40304

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists in entities.c due to the way libxml2 handles reference cycles. The library does not anticipate that entity content can be allocated from a dict and clears it upon reference cycle detection by setting its first byte to zero. This can lead to memory corruption  issues, such as double free errors and result in a denial of service.

Mitigation

Update the affected package libxml2 to the latest version.
