XML parser library written in C
Branch: CURRENT,
Version: 2.6.3,
Package name: expat-2.6.3,
Maintainer: pkgsrc-usersThis is James Clark's expat XML parser library in C. It is a stream oriented
parser that requires setting handlers to deal with the structure that the
parser discovers in the document.

Log message:
expat: updated to 2.6.0
Release 2.6.0 Tue February 6 2024
Security fixes:
* * CVE-2023-52425 -- Fix quadratic runtime issues with big tokens
that can cause denial of service, in partial where
dealing with compressed XML input. Applications
that parsed a document in one go -- a single call to
functions XML_Parse or XML_ParseBuffer -- were not affected.
The smaller the chunks/buffers you use for parsing
previously, the bigger the problem prior to the fix.
Backporters should be careful to no omit parts of
pull request * and to include earlier pull request *,
in order to not break the fix.
* CVE-2023-52426 -- Fix billion laughs attacks for users
compiling *without* XML_DTD defined (which is not common).
Users with XML_DTD defined have been protected since
Expat >=2.4.0 (and that was CVE-2013-0340 back then).
Bug fixes:
* Fix parse-size-dependent "invalid token" error for
external entities that start with a byte order mark
* Fix NULL pointer dereference in setContext via
XML_ExternalEntityParserCreate for compilation with
XML_DTD undefined
* * Protect against closing entities out of order
Other changes:
* Improve support for arc4random/arc4random_buf
* * Improve buffer growth in XML_GetBuffer and XML_Parse
* * xmlwf: Support --help and --version
* * xmlwf: Support custom buffer size for XML_GetBuffer and read
* xmlwf: Improve language and URL clickability in help output
* examples: Add new example "element_declarations.c"
* Be stricter about macro XML_CONTEXT_BYTES at build time
* Make inclusion to expat_config.h consistent
* * Autotools: configure.ac: Support --disable-maintainer-mode
* * ..
* * * Autotools: Sync CMake templates with CMake 3.26
* Autotools: Make installation of shipped man page doc/xmlwf.1
independent of docbook2man availability
* Autotools|CMake: Add missing -DXML_STATIC to pkg-config file
section "Cflags.private" in order to fix compilation
against static libexpat using pkg-config on Windows
* * Autotools|CMake: Require a C99 compiler
(a de-facto requirement already since Expat 2.2.2 of 2017)
* Autotools|CMake: Fix PACKAGE_BUGREPORT variable
* * Autotools|CMake: Make test suite require a C++11 compiler
* CMake: Require CMake >=3.5.0
* CMake: Lowercase off_t and size_t to help a bug in Meson
* CMake: Sort xmlwf sources alphabetically
* CMake|Windows: Fix generation of DLL file version info
* CMake: Build tests/benchmark/benchmark.c as well for
a build with -DEXPAT_BUILD_TESTS=ON
* * docs: Document the importance of isFinal + adjust tests
accordingly
* docs: Improve use of "NULL" and "null"
* docs: Be specific about version of XML (XML 1.0r4)
and version of C (C99); (XML 1.0r5 will need a sponsor.)
* docs: reference.html: Promote function XML_ParseBuffer more
* docs: reference.html: Add HTML anchors to XML_* macros
* docs: reference.html: Upgrade to OK.css 1.2.0
* * docs: Fix typos
* docs|CI: Use HTTPS URLs instead of HTTP at various places
* * ..
* * ..
* * Address compiler warnings
* * Address clang-tidy warnings
* * Version info bumped from 9:10:8 (libexpat*.so.1.8.10)
to 10:0:9 (libexpat*.so.1.9.0); see https://verbump.de/
for what these numbers do
Infrastructure:
* * docs: Document security policy in file SECURITY.md
* docs: Improve parse buffer variables in-code documentation
* * ..
* * ..
* * * Refactor coverage and conformance tests
* * Refactor debug level variables to unsigned long
* Improve handling of empty environment variable value
in function getDebugLevel (without visible user effect)
* * ..
* * ..
* * tests: Improve test coverage with regard to parse chunk size
* * * Fuzzing: Improve fuzzing coverage
* * Fuzzing|CI: Start running OSS-Fuzz fuzzing regression tests
* * CI: Resolve some Travis CI leftovers
* CI: Be robust towards absence of Git tags
* * CI: Set permissions to "contents: read" for security

Log message:
*/builtin.mk: Use ${_CROSS_DESTDIR:U} for build-time file checks.
These are questions about the target system, whose files at
build-time are all relative to ${_CROSS_DESTDIR} if it is defined,
i.e., if USE_CROSS_COMPILE is set to yes.
No change to native builds because ${_CROSS_DESTDIR:U} is empty in
them. (Possible minor change by adding :Q to ${H_FOO} in command
lines, but if this makes a difference it likely fixes problems.)

Log message:
expat: update to 2.4.7.
Release 2.4.7 Fri March 4 2022
Bug fixes:
#572 #577 Relax fix to CVE-2022-25236 (introduced with release 2.4.5)
with regard to all valid URI characters (RFC 3986),
i.e. the following set (excluding whitespace):
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
0123456789 % -._~ :/?#[]@ !$&'()*+,;=
Other changes:
#555 #570 #581 CMake|Windows: Store Expat version in the DLL
#577 Document consequences of namespace separator choices not just
in doc/reference.html but also in header <expat.h>
#577 Document Expat's lack of validation of namespace URIs against
RFC 3986, and that the XML 1.0r4 specification doesn't
require Expat to validate namespace URIs, and that Expat
may do more in that regard in future releases.
If you find need for strict RFC 3986 URI validation on
application level today, https://uriparser.github.io/ may
be of interest.
#579 Fix documentation of XML_EndDoctypeDeclHandler in <expat.h>
#575 Document that a call to XML_FreeContentModel can be done at
a later time from outside the element declaration handler
#574 Make hardcoded namespace URIs easier to find in code
#573 Update documentation on use of XML_POOR_ENTOPY on Solaris
#569 #571 tests: Resolve use of macros NAN and INFINITY for GNU G++
4.8.2 on Solaris.
#578 #580 Version info bumped from 9:6:8 to 9:7:8;
see https://verbump.de/ for what these numbers do
