| Release 2.4.6 Sun February 20 2022 |
| Bug fixes: |
| #566 Fix a regression introduced by the fix for CVE-2022-25313 |
| in release 2.4.5 that affects applications that (1) |
| call function XML_SetElementDeclHandler and (2) are |
| parsing XML that contains nested element declarations |
| (e.g. "<!ELEMENT junk ((bar|foo|xyz+), zebra*)>"). |
| |
| Other changes: |
| #567 #568 Version info bumped from 9:5:8 to 9:6:8; |

| Release 2.4.5 Fri February 18 2022 |
| Security fixes: |
| #562 CVE-2022-25235 -- Passing malformed 2- and 3-byte UTF-8 |
| sequences (e.g. from start tag names) to the XML |
| processing application on top of Expat can cause |
| arbitrary damage (e.g. code execution) depending |
| on how invalid UTF-8 is handled inside the XML |
| processor; validation was not their job but Expat's. |
| Exploits with code execution are known to exist. |
| #561 CVE-2022-25236 -- Passing (one or more) namespace separator |
| characters in "xmlns[:prefix]" attribute values |
| made Expat send malformed tag names to the XML |
| processor on top of Expat which can cause |
| arbitrary damage (e.g. code execution) depending |
| on such unexpectable cases are handled inside the XML |
| processor; validation was not their job but Expat's. |
| Exploits with code execution are known to exist. |
| #558 CVE-2022-25313 -- Fix stack exhaustion in doctype parsing |
| that could be triggered by e.g. a 2 megabytes |
| file with a large number of opening braces. |
| Expected impact is denial of service or potentially |
| arbitrary code execution. |
| #560 CVE-2022-25314 -- Fix integer overflow in function copyString; |
| only affects the encoding name parameter at parser creation |
| time which is often hardcoded (rather than user input), |
| takes a value in the gigabytes to trigger, and a 64-bit |
| machine. Expected impact is denial of service. |
| #559 CVE-2022-25315 -- Fix integer overflow in function storeRawNames; |
| needs input in the gigabytes and a 64-bit machine. |
| Expected impact is denial of service or potentially |
| arbitrary code execution. |

| (undefined behavior) in function XML_GetBuffer |
| (that is also called by function XML_Parse internally) |
| for when XML_CONTEXT_BYTES is defined to >0 (which is both |
| common and default). |
| Impact is denial of service or more. |
| #551 CVE-2022-23990 -- Fix unsigned integer overflow in function |
| doProlog triggered by large content in element type |
| declarations when there is an element declaration handler |
| present (from a prior call to XML_SetElementDeclHandler). |
| Impact is denial of service or more. |

| c) undefined behavior |
| depending on architecture and precise value |
| for XML documents with >=2^27+1 prefixed attributes |
| on a single XML tag a la |
| "<r xmlns:a='[..]' a:a123='[..]' [..] />" |
| where XML_ParserCreateNS is used to create the parser |

| Release 2.4.0 Sun May 23 2021 |
| Security fixes: |
| #34 #466 #484 CVE-2013-0340/CWE-776 -- Protect against billion laughs attacks |
| (denial-of-service; flavors targeting CPU time or RAM or both, |
| leveraging general entities or parameter entities or both) |
| by tracking and limiting the input amplification factor |
| (<amplification> := (<direct> + <indirect>) / <direct>). |
| By conservative default, amplification up to a factor of 100.0 |
| is tolerated and rejection only starts after 8 MiB of output bytes |
| (=<direct> + <indirect>) have been processed. |
| The fix adds the following to the API: |
| - A new error code XML_ERROR_AMPLIFICATION_LIMIT_BREACH to |
| signals this specific condition. |
| - Two new API functions .. |
| - XML_SetBillionLaughsAttackProtectionMaximumAmplification and |
| - XML_SetBillionLaughsAttackProtectionActivationThreshold |
| .. to further tighten billion laughs protection parameters |
| when desired. Please see file "doc/reference.html" for details. |
| If you ever need to increase the defaults for non-attack XML |
| payload, please file a bug report with libexpat. |
| - Two new XML_FEATURE_* constants .. |
| - that can be queried using the XML_GetFeatureList function, and |
| - that are shown in "xmlwf -v" output. |
| - Two new environment variable switches .. |
| - EXPAT_ACCOUNTING_DEBUG=(0|1|2|3) and |
| - EXPAT_ENTITY_DEBUG=(0|1) |
| .. for runtime debugging of accounting and entity processing. |
| Specific behavior of these values may change in the future. |
| - Two new command line arguments "-a FACTOR" and "-b BYTES" |
| for xmlwf to further tighten billion laughs protection |
| parameters when desired. |
| If you ever need to increase the defaults for non-attack XML |
| payload, please file a bug report with libexpat. |
| |
| Bug fixes: |
| #332 #470 For (non-default) compilation with -DEXPAT_MIN_SIZE=ON (CMake) |

| Release 2.3.0 Thu March 25 2021 |
| Bug fixes: |
| #438 When calling XML_ParseBuffer without a prior successful call to |
| XML_GetBuffer as a user, no longer trigger undefined behavior |
| (by adding an integer to a NULL pointer) but rather return |
| XML_STATUS_ERROR and set the error code to (new) code |
| XML_ERROR_NO_BUFFER. Found by UBSan (UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer) |
| of Clang 11 (but not Clang 9). |
| #444 xmlwf: Exit status 2 was used for both: |
| - malformed input files (documented) and |
| - invalid command-line arguments (undocumented). |
| The case of invalid command-line arguments now |
| has its own exit status 4, resolving the ambiguity. |
| |

| #439 xmlwf: Add argument -k to allow continuing after |
| non-fatal errors |

| about passed tests, and make default mode report about |
| failures, as well. |
| #442 CMake: Call "enable_language(CXX)" prior to tinkering |
| with CMAKE_CXX_* variables |
| #448 Document use of libexpat from a CMake-based project |
| #451 Autotools: Install CMake files as generated by CMake 3.19.6 |
| so that users with "find_package(expat [..] CONFIG [..])" |
| are served on distributions that are *not* using the CMake |
| build system inside for libexpat packaging |
| #436 #437 Autotools: Drop obsolescent macro AC_HEADER_STDC |
| #450 #452 Autotools: Resolve use of obsolete macro AC_CONFIG_HEADER |
| #441 Address compiler warnings |

| |
| Bug fixes: |
| #240 Fix cases where XML_StopParser did not have any effect |
| when called from inside of an end element handler |
| #341 xmlwf: Fix exit code for operation without "-d DIRECTORY"; |
| previously, only "-d DIRECTORY" would give you a proper |

| # xmlwf -d . <<<'<not well-formed>' 2>/dev/null ; echo $? |
| 2 |
| # xmlwf <<<'<not well-formed>' 2>/dev/null ; echo $? |

| - Bug Fixes: |
| #1742315: Harmful XML_ParserCreateNS suggestion. |
| #1785430: Expat build fails on linux-amd64 with gcc version>=4.1 -O3. |
| #1983953, 2517952, 2517962, 2649838: |
| Build modifications using autoreconf instead of buildconf.sh. |
| #2815947, #2884086: OBJEXT and EXEEXT support while building. |
| #2517938: xmlwf should return non-zero exit status if not well-formed. |

| value (salt) for hash calculations. This is part of the fix for |
| bug #3496608 to randomize hash parameters. |
| When compiled with XML_ATTR_INFO defined, adds new API member |
| XML_GetAttributeInfo() that allows retrieving the byte |
| offsets for attribute names and values (patch #3446384). |
| Added CMake build system. |
| See bug #2990652 and patch #3312568. |
| Added run-benchmark target to Makefile.in - relies on testdata module |
| present in the same relative location as in the repository. |
| |
| Release 2.0.1 Tue June 5 2007 |
| - Fixed bugs #1515266, #1515600: The character data handler's calling |
| of XML_StopParser() was not handled properly; if the parser was |
| stopped and the handler set to NULL, the parser would segfault. |
| - Fixed bug #1690883: Expat failed on EBCDIC systems as it assumed |
| some character constants to be ASCII encoded. |
| - Minor cleanups of the test harness. |
| - Fixed xmlwf bug #1513566: "out of memory" error on file size zero. |
| - Fixed outline.c bug #1543233: missing a final XML_ParserFree() call. |
| - Fixes and improvements for Windows platform: |
| bugs #1409451, #1476160, #1548182, #1602769, #1717322. |
| - Build fixes for various platforms: |
| HP-UX, Tru64, Solaris 9: patch #1437840, bug #1196180. |
| All Unix: #1554618 (refreshed config.sub/config.guess). |
| #1490371, #1613457: support both, DESTDIR and INSTALL_ROOT, |
| without relying on GNU-Make specific features. |
| #1647805: Patched configure.in to work better with Intel compiler. |
| - Fixes to Makefile.in to have make check work correctly: |
| bugs #1408143, #1535603, #1536684. |
| - Added Open Watcom support: patch #1523242. |
| |
| Release 2.0.0 Wed Jan 11 2006 |
| - We no longer use the "check" library for C unit testing; we |
| always use the (partial) internal implementation of the API. |
| - Report XML_NS setting via XML_GetFeatureList(). |
| - Fixed headers for use from C++. |
| - XML_GetCurrentLineNumber() and XML_GetCurrentColumnNumber() |
| now return unsigned integers. |
| - Added XML_LARGE_SIZE switch to enable 64-bit integers for |
| byte indexes and line/column numbers. |
| - Updated to use libtool 1.5.22 (the most recent). |
| - Added support for AmigaOS. |
| - Some mostly minor bug fixes. SF issues include: #1006708, |
| #1021776, #1023646, #1114960, #1156398, #1221160, #1271642. |
| |
| Release 1.95.8 Fri Jul 23 2004 |
| - Major new feature: suspend/resume. Handlers can now request |
| that a parse be suspended for later resumption or aborted |
| altogether. See "Temporarily Stopping Parsing" in the |
| documentation for more details. |
| - Some mostly minor bug fixes, but compilation should no |
| longer generate warnings on most platforms. SF issues |
| include: #827319, #840173, #846309, #888329, #896188, #923913, |
| #928113, #961698, #985192. |
| |
| Release 1.95.7 Mon Oct 20 2003 |
| - Fixed enum XML_Status issue (reported on SourceForge many |
| times), so compilers that are properly picky will be happy. |
| - Introduced an XMLCALL macro to control the calling |
| convention used by the Expat API; this macro should be used |
| to annotate prototypes and definitions of callback |
| implementations in code compiled with a calling convention |
| other than the default convention for the host platform. |
| - Improved ability to build without the configure-generated |
| expat_config.h header. This is useful for applications |
| which embed Expat rather than linking in the library. |
| - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues #458907, #609603, |
| #676844, #679754, #692878, #692964, #695401, #699323, #699487, |
| #820946. |
| - Improved hash table lookups. |
| - Added more regression tests and improved documentation. |
| |
| Release 1.95.6 Tue Jan 28 2003 |
| - Added XML_FreeContentModel(). |
| - Added XML_MemMalloc(), XML_MemRealloc(), XML_MemFree(). |
| - Fixed a variety of bugs: see SF issues #615606, #616863, |
| #618199, #653180, #673791. |
| - Enhanced the regression test suite. |
| - Man page improvements: includes SF issue #632146. |
| |
| Release 1.95.5 Fri Sep 6 2002 |
| - Added XML_UseForeignDTD() for improved SAX2 support. |
| - Added XML_GetFeatureList(). |
| - Defined XML_Bool type and the values XML_TRUE and XML_FALSE. |
| - Use an incomplete struct instead of a void* for the parser |
| (may not retain). |
| - Fixed UTF-8 decoding bug that caused legal UTF-8 to be rejected. |
| - Finally fixed bug where default handler would report DTD |
| events that were already handled by another handler. |
| Initial patch contributed by Darryl Miles. |
| - Removed unnecessary DllMain() function that caused static |
| linking into a DLL to be difficult. |
| - Added VC++ projects for building static libraries. |
| - Reduced line-length for all source code and headers to be |

| - XML_ParserCreate_MM |
| Allows you to set a memory management suite to replace the |
| standard malloc,realloc, and free. |
| - XML_SetReturnNSTriplet |
| If you turn this feature on when namespace processing is in |
| effect, then qualified, prefixed element and attribute names |
| are returned as "uri|name|prefix" where '|' is whatever |
| separator character is used in namespace processing. |
| - Merged in features from perl-expat |
| o XML_SetElementDeclHandler |
| o XML_SetAttlistDeclHandler |
| o XML_SetXmlDeclHandler |
| o XML_SetEntityDeclHandler |
| o StartDoctypeDeclHandler takes 3 additional parameters: |
| sysid, pubid, has_internal_subset |
| o Many paired handler setters (like XML_SetElementHandler) |
| now have corresponding individual handler setters |
| o XML_GetInputContext for getting the input context of |
| the current parse position. |
| - Added reference material |
| - Packaged into a distribution that builds a sharable library |
