NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libxml2 package and not the libxml2 package as distributed by Ubuntu.

libxml2 in Apple iOS before 9.2, OS X before 10.11.2, and tvOS before 9.1 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted XML document, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-7116.
