<define-tag description>LTS security update</define-tag>
<define-tag moreinfo>
<p>It was discovered that there was a heap-based buffer overread
vulnerability in expat, an XML parsing library.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2019-15903">CVE-2019-15903</a>
<p>In libexpat before 2.2.8, crafted XML input could fool the parser into
changing from DTD parsing to document parsing too early; a consecutive call
to <tt>XML_GetCurrentLineNumber</tt> (or
<tt>XML_GetCurrentColumnNumber</tt>) then resulted in a heap-based buffer
over-read.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>For Debian 8 <q>Jessie</q>, these problems have been fixed in version
2.1.0-6+deb8u6.</p>
<p>We recommend that you upgrade your expat packages.</p>
<p>Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply
these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be
