Description

libxslt through 1.1.33 allows bypass of a protection mechanism because callers of xsltCheckRead and xsltCheckWrite permit access even upon receiving a -1 error code. xsltCheckRead can return -1 for a crafted URL that is not actually invalid and is subsequently loaded.

Solution(s)

  • oracle-linux-upgrade-libxslt
  • oracle-linux-upgrade-libxslt-devel
  • oracle-linux-upgrade-libxslt-python
