DescriptionNVD

In libxml2 before 2.15.4, xmlURIEscapeStr in uri.c has an integer overflow.

AnalysisAI

An integer overflow in libxml2's xmlURIEscapeStr() URI-escaping routine, present in all versions before 2.15.4, allows heap memory corruption that can lead to code execution in the context of the process using the library (CVSS 7.8, AV:L/PR:L). The issue is reachable only by a local, low-privileged actor who can drive an oversized string into libxml2's URI handling helpers, and CISA's SSVC rates it non-automatable with no known exploitation. …
