libxml2: fix python packaging for nativesdk

2014-10-09T20:16:32+00:00

We enable the python module in nativesdk-libxml2, but the python binary
used is in the native sysroot and thus you get the module installed in
the wrong path. Even with that fixed the python files are still
unpackaged, so create an ${PN}-python package and add them to it. (This
does not affect the libxml target build at all since python is disabled
for that.)

libxml2: fix CVE-2014-0191

2014-05-29T12:42:07+00:00

It was discovered that libxml2, a library providing support to read,
modify and write XML files, incorrectly performs entity substituton in
the doctype prolog, even if the application using libxml2 disabled any
entity substitution. A remote attacker could provide a
specially-crafted XML file that, when processed, would lead to the
exhaustion of CPU and memory resources or file descriptors.

libxml2: remove patch for CVE-2012-2871

2013-09-17T13:13:04+00:00

This CVE patch is actually against Chromium as they ship an internal fork of
libxml2 and breaks ABI.  The real issue has been resolved in libxslt 1.1.27, and
we're shipping 1.1.28.

libxml2: added python dependency to nativesdk

2013-06-10T21:51:27+00:00

This is necessary since libxml2 has python dependency.

This patch will fix this error:

libxml2 CVE-2012-2871

2012-12-14T23:17:21+00:00

the patch come from:
http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/trunk/src/third_party/libxml/src \
/include/libxml/tree.h?r1=56276&r2=149930

libxml2 2.9.0-rc1 and earlier, as used in Google Chrome before 21.0.1180.89,
does not properly support a cast of an unspecified variable during handling
of XSL transforms, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
or possibly have unknown other impact via a crafted document, related to the
_xmlNs data structure in include/libxml/tree.h.
