NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libxslt-devel package and not the libxslt-devel package as distributed by RHEL.

libxslt, as used in Apple iOS before 9.3.2, OS X before 10.11.5, tvOS before 9.2.1, and watchOS before 2.2.1, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted web site.
