NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream qt6-qtwebengine package and not the qt6-qtwebengine package as distributed by Alpine. See How to fix? for Alpine:3.23 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in libxml2. This vulnerability occurs when the library processes a specially crafted XML Schema Definition (XSD) validated document that includes an internal entity reference. An attacker could exploit this by providing a malicious document, leading to a type confusion error that causes the application to crash. This results in a denial of service (DoS), making the affected system or application unavailable.
