Release 2.2.8 Fri Septemper 13 2019
Security fixes:
#317#318 CVE-2019-15903 -- Fix heap overflow triggered by
XML_GetCurrentLineNumber (or XML_GetCurrentColumnNumber),
and deny internal entities closing the doctype;
fixed in commit c20b758c332d9a13afbbb276d30db1d183a85d43
Bug fixes:
#240 Fix cases where XML_StopParser did not have any effect
when called from inside of an end element handler
#341 xmlwf: Fix exit code for operation without "-d DIRECTORY";
previously, only "-d DIRECTORY" would give you a proper
exit code:
# xmlwf -d . <<<'<not well-formed>' 2>/dev/null ; echo $?
2
# xmlwf <<<'<not well-formed>' 2>/dev/null ; echo $?
0
Now both cases return exit code 2.
Other changes:
#299#302 Windows: Replace LoadLibrary hack to access
unofficial API function SystemFunction036 (RtlGenRandom)
by using official API function rand_s (needs WinXP+)
#325 Windows: Drop support for Visual Studio <=7.1/2003
and document supported compilers in README.md
#286 Windows: Remove COM code from xmlwf; in case it turns
out needed later, there will be a dedicated repository
below https://github.com/libexpat/ for that code
