version update to 2.7.0 (CVE-2024-8176 [bsc#1239618]):
* Security fixes:
#893 #973 CVE-2024-8176 -- Fix crash from chaining a large number
of entities caused by stack overflow by resolving use of
recursion, for all three uses of entities:
- general entities in character data ('<e>&g1;</e>')
- general entities in attribute values ('<e k1='&g1;'/>')
- parameter entities ('%p1;')
Known impact is (reliable and easy) denial of service:
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:H/RL:O/RC:C
(Base Score: 7.5, Temporal Score: 7.2)
Please note that a layer of compression around XML can
significantly reduce the minimum attack payload size.
* Other changes:
#935 #937 Autotools: Make generated CMake files look for
libexpat. at SO_MAJOR@.dylib on macOS
#925 Autotools: Sync CMake templates with CMake 3.29
#945 #962 #966 CMake: Drop support for CMake <3.13
#942 CMake: Small fuzzing related improvements
#921 docs: Add missing documentation of error code
XML_ERROR_NOT_STARTED that was introduced with 2.6.4
#941 docs: Document need for C++11 compiler for use from C++
#959 tests/benchmark: Fix a (harmless) TOCTTOU
#944 Windows: Fix installer target location of file xmlwf.xml
for CMake
#953 Windows: Address warning -Wunknown-warning-option
about -Wno-pedantic-ms-format from LLVM MinGW
#971 Address Cppcheck warnings
#969 #970 Mass-migrate links from http:// to https://
#947 #958 ..
#974 #975 Document changes since the previous release
#974 #975 Version info bumped from 11:0:10 (libexpat*.so.1.10.0)
to 11:1:10 (libexpat*.so.1.10.1); see https://verbump.de/
for what these numbers do
- no source changes, just adding jira reference: jsc#SLE-21253
Version update to 2.6.4
* Security fixes: [bsc#1232601][bsc#1232579]
#915 CVE-2024-50602 -- Fix crash within function XML_ResumeParser
from a NULL pointer dereference by disallowing function
XML_StopParser to (stop or) suspend an unstarted parser.
A new error code XML_ERROR_NOT_STARTED was introduced to
properly communicate this situation. // CWE-476 CWE-754
* Other changes:
#903 CMake: Add alias target 'expat::expat'
#905 docs: Document use via CMake >=3.18 with FetchContent
and SOURCE_SUBDIR and its consequences
#902 tests: Reduce use of global parser instance
#904 tests: Resolve duplicate handler
#317 #918 tests: Improve tests on doctype closing (ex CVE-2019-15903)
#914 Fix signedness of format strings
#919 #920 Version info bumped from 10:3:9 (libexpat*.so.1.9.3)
to 11:0:10 (libexpat*.so.1.10.0); see https://verbump.de/
for what these numbers do
Update to 2.6.3:
* Security fixes:
- CVE-2024-45490, bsc#1229930 -- Calling function XML_ParseBuffer with
len < 0 without noticing and then calling XML_GetBuffer
will have XML_ParseBuffer fail to recognize the problem
and XML_GetBuffer corrupt memory.
With the fix, XML_ParseBuffer now complains with error
XML_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT just like sibling XML_Parse
has been doing since Expat 2.2.1, and now documented.
Impact is denial of service to potentially artitrary code
execution.
- CVE-2024-45491, bsc#1229931 -- Internal function dtdCopy can have an
integer overflow for nDefaultAtts on 32-bit platforms
(where UINT_MAX equals SIZE_MAX).
Impact is denial of service to potentially artitrary code
execution.
- CVE-2024-45492, bsc#1229932 -- Internal function nextScaffoldPart can
have an integer overflow for m_groupSize on 32-bit
platforms (where UINT_MAX equals SIZE_MAX).
Impact is denial of service to potentially artitrary code
execution.
Update to 2.6.2:
* CVE-2024-28757 -- Prevent billion laughs attacks with isolated
use of external parsers (bsc#1221289)
* Reject direct parameter entity recursion and avoid the related
undefined behavior
Update to 2.6.1:
* Expose billion laughs API with XML_DTD defined and XML_GE
undefined, regression from 2.6.0
* Make tests independent of CPU speed, and thus more robust
Update to 2.6.0:
* Security fixes:
- CVE-2023-52425 (bsc#1219559)
-- Fix quadratic runtime issues with big tokens
that can cause denial of service, in partial where
dealing with compressed XML input. Applications
that parsed a document in one go -- a single call to
functions XML_Parse or XML_ParseBuffer -- were not affected.
The smaller the chunks/buffers you use for parsing
previously, the bigger the problem prior to the fix.
Backporters should be careful to no omit parts of
pull request #789 and to include earlier pull request #771,
in order to not break the fix.
- CVE-2023-52426 (bsc#1219561)
-- Fix billion laughs attacks for users
compiling *without* XML_DTD defined (which is not common).
Users with XML_DTD defined have been protected since
Expat >=2.4.0 (and that was CVE-2013-0340 back then).
* Bug fixes:
- Fix parse-size-dependent 'invalid token' error for
external entities that start with a byte order mark
- Fix NULL pointer dereference in setContext via
XML_ExternalEntityParserCreate for compilation with
XML_DTD undefined
- Protect against closing entities out of order
* Other changes:
- Improve support for arc4random/arc4random_buf
- Improve buffer growth in XML_GetBuffer and XML_Parse
- xmlwf: Support --help and --version
- xmlwf: Support custom buffer size for XML_GetBuffer and read
- xmlwf: Improve language and URL clickability in help output
- examples: Add new example 'element_declarations.c'
- Be stricter about macro XML_CONTEXT_BYTES at build time
- Make inclusion to expat_config.h consistent
- Autotools: configure.ac: Support --disable-maintainer-mode
- Autotools: Sync CMake templates with CMake 3.26
- Autotools: Make installation of shipped man page doc/xmlwf.1
independent of docbook2man availability
- Autotools|CMake: Add missing -DXML_STATIC to pkg-config file
section 'Cflags.private' in order to fix compilation
against static libexpat using pkg-config on Windows

(a de-facto requirement already since Expat 2.2.2 of 2017)
- Autotools|CMake: Fix PACKAGE_BUGREPORT variable
- Autotools|CMake: Make test suite require a C++11 compiler
- CMake: Require CMake >=3.5.0
- CMake: Lowercase off_t and size_t to help a bug in Meson
- CMake: Sort xmlwf sources alphabetically

- CMake: Build tests/benchmark/benchmark.c as well for
a build with -DEXPAT_BUILD_TESTS=ON
- docs: Document the importance of isFinal + adjust tests
accordingly
- docs: Improve use of 'NULL' and 'null'
- docs: Be specific about version of XML (XML 1.0r4)
