Multiple memory related vulnerabilities, inlcuding use-after-free,
out-of-bounds memory access and NULL pointer dereference, were discovered in
GNOME XML Parser and Toolkit Library and its Python bindings, which may cause
denial of service or other unintended behaviors.
For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in
version 2.9.14+dfsg-1.3~deb12u2.
We recommend that you upgrade your libxml2 packages.
