{"id":"ALSA-2022:1643","summary":"Important: xmlrpc-c security update","details":"XML-RPC is a remote procedure call (RPC) protocol that uses XML to encode its calls and HTTP as a transport mechanism. The xmlrpc-c packages provide a network protocol to allow a client program to make a simple RPC (remote procedure call) over the Internet. It converts an RPC into an XML document, sends it to a remote server using HTTP, and gets back the response in XML.\n\nSecurity Fix(es):\n\n* expat: Malformed 2- and 3-byte UTF-8 sequences can lead to arbitrary code execution (CVE-2022-25235)\n\nFor more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.","modified":"2026-01-30T02:44:08.648544Z","published":"2022-04-28T14:07:17Z","related":["CVE-2022-25235"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://vulners.com/cve/CVE-2022-25235"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"xmlrpc-c-c++","ecosystem":"AlmaLinux:8","purl":"pkg:rpm/almalinux/xmlrpc-c-c%2B%2B"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.51.0-5.el8_5.1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/AlmaLinux/osv-database/blob/master/advisories/almalinux8/ALSA-2022:1643.json"}},{"package":{"name":"xmlrpc-c-client++","ecosystem":"AlmaLinux:8","purl":"pkg:rpm/almalinux/xmlrpc-c-client%2B%2B"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.51.0-5.el8_5.1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/AlmaLinux/osv-database/blob/master/advisories/almalinux8/ALSA-2022:1643.json"}},{"package":{"name":"xmlrpc-c-devel","ecosystem":"AlmaLinux:8","purl":"pkg:rpm/almalinux/xmlrpc-c-devel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.51.0-5.el8_5.1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/AlmaLinux/osv-database/blob/master/advisories/almalinux8/ALSA-2022:1643.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.3"}
