+ <p>libxml2 is the XML (eXtended Markup Language) C parser and toolkit
+ initially developed for the Gnome project.

+ <description>
+ <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in libxml2. Please review
+ the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker, by enticing a user to process a specially crafted XML
+ document, could remotely execute arbitrary code, conduct XML External
+ Entity (XXE) attacks, or cause a Denial of Service condition.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All libxml2 users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-libs/libxml2-2.9.4-r3"
+ </code>
+
+ <p>Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools
+ such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying some of these packages.
