Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions libxml2 versions prior to 2.7.7 Google Chrome versions prior to 19.0.1084.46

Description The issue is caused by an off-by-one error in libxml2, which can be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors. The vulnerability can be exploited remotely and may lead to a violation of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information.

Recommendations For libxml2 versions prior to 2.7.7, update to version 2.7.7 or later to resolve the issue.
