Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2012-164 - Unspecified vulnerability in XSLT allows remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive information about heap memory addresses via unknown vectors. libxslt 1.1.26 and earlier does not properly manage memory, which might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted XSLT expression that is not properly identified during XPath navigation, related to the xsltCompileLocationPathPattern function in libxslt/pattern.c and the xsltGenerateIdFunction function in libxslt/functions.c. libxml2 2.9.0-rc1 and earlier does not properly support a cast of an unspecified variable during handling of XSL transforms, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unknown other impact via a crafted document, related to the _xmlNs data structure in include/libxml/tree.h. Double free vulnerability in libxslt allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors related to XSL transforms. The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2012:164

_______________________________________________________________________

Package : libxslt
Date : October 11, 2012
Affected: 2011., Enterprise Server 5.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

Multiple vulnerabilities has been discovered and corrected in libxslt:

Unspecified vulnerability in XSLT allows remote attackers to obtain
potentially sensitive information about heap memory addresses via
unknown vectors (CVE-2011-1202).

libxslt 1.1.26 and earlier does not properly manage memory, which might
allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash)
via a crafted XSLT expression that is not properly identified during
XPath navigation, related to (1) the xsltCompileLocationPathPattern
function in libxslt/pattern.c and (2) the xsltGenerateIdFunction
function in libxslt/functions.c (CVE-2012-2870).

libxml2 2.9.0-rc1 and earlier does not properly support a cast of
an unspecified variable during handling of XSL transforms, which
allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have
unknown other impact via a crafted document, related to the _xmlNs
data structure in include/libxml/tree.h (CVE-2012-2871).

Double free vulnerability in libxslt allows remote attackers to cause
a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via
vectors related to XSL transforms (CVE-2012-2893).

The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
