{"id":"CVE-2023-39615","details":"Xmlsoft Libxml2 v2.11.0 was discovered to contain an out-of-bounds read via the xmlSAX2StartElement() function at /libxml2/SAX2.c. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via supplying a crafted XML file. NOTE: the vendor's position is that the product does not support the legacy SAX1 interface with custom callbacks; there is a crash even without crafted input.","modified":"2026-08-12T03:51:47.385362287Z","published":"2023-08-29T00:00:00Z","related":["ALSA-2023:7747","ALSA-2024:0119","SUSE-SU-2023:3665-1","SUSE-SU-2023:3666-1","SUSE-SU-2023:3666-2","SUSE-SU-2023:3698-1","SUSE-SU-2023:3699-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:13192-1"],"database_specific":{"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2023/39xxx/CVE-2023-39615.json","cna_assigner":"mitre","isDisputed":true},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2025/02/msg00028.html"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2023/39xxx/CVE-2023-39615.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-39615"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/issues/535"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/gnome/libxml2","events":[{"introduced":"f296934ade688baab79caf1c62a82149ad78accf"},{"last_affected":"f296934ade688baab79caf1c62a82149ad78accf"}],"database_specific":{"extracted_events":[{"introduced":"2.11.0"},{"last_affected":"2.11.0"}],"source":"CPE_STRING","cpe":"cpe:2.3:a:xmlsoft:libxml2:2.11.0:*:*:*:*:*:*:*"}}],"versions":["2.11.0","v2.11.0"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2023-39615.json"}},{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://gitlab.gnome.org/gnome/libxml2","events":[{"introduced":"f296934ade688baab79caf1c62a82149ad78accf"},{"last_affected":"f296934ade688baab79caf1c62a82149ad78accf"}],"database_specific":{"extracted_events":[{"introduced":"2.11.0"},{"last_affected":"2.11.0"}],"source":"CPE_STRING","cpe":"cpe:2.3:a:xmlsoft:libxml2:2.11.0:*:*:*:*:*:*:*"}}],"versions":["2.11.0","v2.11.0"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2023-39615.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
