Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-Bounds due to the usage of a vulnerable version of libxslt. A type holding grouping characters of an xsl:number instruction was too narrow, and an invalid character/length combination could be passed to xsltNumberFormatDecimal which results in a read of uninitialized stack data.
