CVE-2024-40896

CRITICAL

libxml2 <2.11.9-2.13.3 - XSS

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

In libxml2 2.11 before 2.11.9, 2.12 before 2.12.9, and 2.13 before 2.13.3, the SAX parser can produce events for external entities even if custom SAX handlers try to override entity content (by setting "checked"). This makes classic XXE attacks possible.
