CVE-2019-11068  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.0 libxslt-devel to version 1.1.32-3.3.1 or higher.

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 SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

libxslt through 1.1.33 allows bypass of a protection mechanism because callers of xsltCheckRead and xsltCheckWrite permit access even upon receiving a -1 error code. xsltCheckRead can return -1 for a crafted URL that is not actually invalid and is subsequently loaded.
