Subject: Expat 2.4.0 (and 2.4.1) with security fixes released
Date: Mon, 24 May 2021 01:01:35 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <76c46851-a65a-628a-4ae3-9b760b1c3ad0@pipping.org> (raw)
Hello everyone!
Expat 2.4.0 (and 2.4.1) most importantly brings protection against
Billion Laughs Attacks (CVE-2013-0340). There is a blog post [1] and
the change log with more details.
If you have patches for Expat that are still required with version
2.4.1, please send them my way. Thank you!
Best
Sebastian
