[jira] [Commented] (XERCESC-2061) Buffer overruns in prolog parsing
and error handling
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-2061?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15679732#comment-15679732 ]
Moti commented on XERCESC-2061:
-------------------------------
Hi Scott,
You specified that the affected version is 3.1.2.
However, the NVD says (https://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2016-0729) that all the versions before 3.1.3 are vulnerable to this (CVE-2016-0729) security issue.
I wanted to ask specifically for v2.7 whether it's vulnerable to it or not.
Can you put some light here?
Thanks!
