CVE-2019-11068

CRITICAL9.8

libxslt through 1

Published Apr 10, 2019

Modified 1 years ago

Details

libxslt through 1.1.33 allows bypass of a protection mechanism because callers of xsltCheckRead and xsltCheckWrite permit access even upon receiving a -1 error code. xsltCheckRead can return -1 for a crafted URL that is not actually invalid and is subsequently loaded.
