Change logs for xerces-c source package in Jessie

  • xerces-c (3.1.1-5.1+deb8u4) jessie; urgency=medium
    
      * Fix CVE-2017-12627: Alberto Garcia, Francisco Oca and Suleman Ali of
        Offensive Research discovered that the Xerces-C XML parser mishandles
        certain kinds of external DTD references, resulting in dereference of a
        NULL pointer while processing the path to the DTD. The bug allows for a
        denial of service attack in applications that allow DTD processing and do
        not prevent external DTD usage, and could conceivably result in remote code
        execution.
