CVE-2014-5265 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Ubuntu security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Ubuntu:17.10.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream drupal7 package and not the drupal7 package as distributed by Ubuntu.
The Incutio XML-RPC (IXR) Library, as used in WordPress before 3.9.2 and Drupal 6.x before 6.33 and 7.x before 7.31, permits entity declarations without considering recursion during entity expansion, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a crafted XML document containing a large number of nested entity references, a similar issue to CVE-2003-1564.
