NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream coin3 package and not the coin3 package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:20.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

The overflow protection in Expat is removed by compilers with certain optimization settings, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted XML data. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2015-1283 and CVE-2015-2716.
