NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream MozillaFirefox-branding-SLE package and not the MozillaFirefox-branding-SLE package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.1 relevant fixed versions and status.

In libexpat before 2.2.8, crafted XML input could fool the parser into changing from DTD parsing to document parsing too early; a consecutive call to XML_GetCurrentLineNumber (or XML_GetCurrentColumnNumber) then resulted in a heap-based buffer over-read.
