24) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-40304)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists in entities.c due to the way libxml2 handles reference cycles. The library does not anticipate that entity content can be allocated from a dict and clears it upon reference cycle detection by setting its first byte to zero. This can lead to memory corruption issues, such as double free errors and result in a denial of service.
