3. Description:

The librsvg2 packages provide an SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) library
based on libart.

An XML External Entity expansion flaw was found in the way librsvg2
processed SVG files. If a user were to open a malicious SVG file, a remote
attacker could possibly obtain a copy of the local resources that the user
had access to. (CVE-2013-1881)

All librsvg2 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to correct this issue. All running applications
that use librsvg2 must be restarted for this update to take effect.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the
Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
