|
Anthony de Almeida Lopes reported a vulnerability in libxslt when
|
|
handling XSL style-sheet files, which could be exploited to trigger the
|
|
use of uninitialized memory, e.g. in a call to "free()".

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to process an
|
|
XML file using a specially crafted XSL transformation file, possibly
|
|
resulting in the execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service.
