+ itself is an XML language to define transformations for XML.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Anthony de Almeida Lopes reported a vulnerability in libxslt when
+ handling XSL style-sheet files, which could be exploited to trigger the
+ use of uninitialized memory, e.g. in a call to "free()".
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to process an
+ XML file using a specially crafted XSL transformation file, possibly
+ resulting in the execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All libxslt users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=dev-libs/libxslt-1.1.24&quot;</code>
