CVE-2015-7942

Published: 11/18/2015 Last updated: 8/6/2024 Reserved: 10/22/2015

The xmlParseConditionalSections function in parser.c in libxml2 does not properly skip intermediary entities when it stops parsing invalid input, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and crash) via crafted XML data, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-7941.
