Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** XML::LibXML versions through 2.0210 for Perl read out-of-bounds heap memory when parsing XML node names containing truncated UTF-8 byte sequences.<br />
<br />
A node name ending in the middle of a multi byte UTF-8 sequence causes the parser to read past the end of the input string into adjacent heap memory.<br />
<br />
Any Perl process that passes attacker controlled strings to XML::LibXML&#39;s DOM node-name methods can reach this path on the default API. The likely consequence is a crash, causing denial of service.
