CVE-2015-3451 (2015-04-23)

The _clone function does not properly set the expand_entities option, which allows remote attackers to conduct XML external entity (XXE) attacks via crafted XML data to the (1) new or (2) load_xml function.

CVE-2017-10672 (2015-04-23)

Use-after-free in the XML-LibXML module through 2.0129 for Perl allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by controlling the arguments to a replaceChild call.

NAME

XML::LibXML::Comment - The DOM Comment Class

SYNOPSIS

use XML::LibXML::Comment;

$node = XML::LibXML::Comment( $content );

DESCRIPTION

This class provides all functions of XML::LibXML::Text, but for comment nodes. This can be done, since only the output of the nodetypes is different, but not the datastructure. :-)

Methods

new

The constructor is the only provided function for this package. It is required, because libxml2 treats text nodes and comment nodes slightly different.
