Initial Package Version: 2.0.1
Upstream Status: From Upstream
Origin: Unknown
Description: Fixes for CVE-2009-2625 (infinite loop and application hang via
malformed XML) CVE-2009-3560 (DOS via buffer overrun caused by malformed UTF-8)
and CVE-2009-3720 (DOS via buffer overrun caused by crafted UTF-8).  This
replaces version -2 which had both the original and the revised fixes for
CVE-2009-3560 - the revised version is supposed to replace the original, not
add to it, because of problems with certain perl users of libexpat.
