An update that solves one vulnerability can now be installed.

Description:

This update for perl-XML-Twig fixes the following issues:

  • Security fix [bsc#1008644, CVE-2016-9180]
  • Added: the no_xxe option to XML::Twig::new, which causes the parse to fail if external entities are used (to prevent malicious XML to access the filesystem).
  • Setting expand_external_ents to 0 or -1 currently doesn't work as expected; To completely turn off expanding external entities use no_xxe.
  • Update documentation for XML::Twig to mention problems with expand_external_ents and add information about new no_xxe argument
