Several vulnerabilities were discovered in libxml2, a library providing
support to read, modify and write XML and HTML files.
CVE-2022-40303
Maddie Stone discovered that missing safety checks in several
functions can result in integer overflows when parsing a XML
document with the XML_PARSE_HUGE option enabled.
CVE-2022-40304
Ned Williamson and Nathan Wachholz discovered a vulnerability when
handling detection of entity reference cycles, which may result in
corrupted dictionary entries. This flaw may lead to logic errors,
including memory errors like double free flaws.
For the stable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed in
