There is no fixed version for Debian:unstable libxml2.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libxml2 package and not the libxml2 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.

In libxml2, there is a possible out of bounds read due to a buffer overflow. This could lead to local information disclosure with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
