Expat is a stream oriented XML parser. This means that you register handlers with the parser prior to starting the parse. These handlers are called when the parser discovers the associated structures in the document being parsed. A start tag is an example of the kind of structures for which you may register handlers. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Update Information: Update to 2.4.9, fixes CVE-2022-30674. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------ChangeLog: * Fri Oct 21 2022 Sandro Mani - 2.4.9-1 - Update to 2.4.9 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------References: [ 1 ] Bug #2130778 - CVE-2022-40674 mingw-expat: expat: a use-after-free in the doContent function in xmlparse.c [fedora-35] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2130778 [ 2 ] Bug #2130781 - CVE-2022-40674 mingw-expat: expat: a use-after-free in the doContent function in xmlparse.c [fedora-36] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2130781 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
