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

expat: update to 2.4.6
Release 2.4.6 Sun February 20 2022
Bug fixes:
#566 Fix a regression introduced by the fix for CVE-2022-25313
in release 2.4.5 that affects applications that (1)
call function XML_SetElementDeclHandler and (2) are
parsing XML that contains nested element declarations
(e.g. "<!ELEMENT junk ((bar|foo|xyz+), \
zebra*)>").

Log message:
expat: update to 2.4.5.
Release 2.4.5 Fri February 18 2022
Security fixes:
#562 CVE-2022-25235 -- Passing malformed 2- and 3-byte UTF-8
sequences (e.g. from start tag names) to the XML
processing application on top of Expat can cause
arbitrary damage (e.g. code execution) depending
on how invalid UTF-8 is handled inside the XML
processor; validation was not their job but Expat's.
Exploits with code execution are known to exist.
#561 CVE-2022-25236 -- Passing (one or more) namespace separator
characters in "xmlns[:prefix]" attribute values
made Expat send malformed tag names to the XML
processor on top of Expat which can cause
arbitrary damage (e.g. code execution) depending
on such unexpectable cases are handled inside the XML
processor; validation was not their job but Expat's.
Exploits with code execution are known to exist.
#558 CVE-2022-25313 -- Fix stack exhaustion in doctype parsing
that could be triggered by e.g. a 2 megabytes
file with a large number of opening braces.
Expected impact is denial of service or potentially
arbitrary code execution.
#560 CVE-2022-25314 -- Fix integer overflow in function copyString;
only affects the encoding name parameter at parser creation
time which is often hardcoded (rather than user input),
takes a value in the gigabytes to trigger, and a 64-bit
machine. Expected impact is denial of service.
#559 CVE-2022-25315 -- Fix integer overflow in function storeRawNames;
needs input in the gigabytes and a 64-bit machine.
Expected impact is denial of service or potentially
arbitrary code execution.

expat: update to 2.4.4.
Release 2.4.4 Sun January 30 2022
Security fixes:
#550 CVE-2022-23852 -- Fix signed integer overflow
(undefined behavior) in function XML_GetBuffer
(that is also called by function XML_Parse internally)
for when XML_CONTEXT_BYTES is defined to >0 (which is both
common and default).
Impact is denial of service or more.
#551 CVE-2022-23990 -- Fix unsigned integer overflow in function
doProlog triggered by large content in element type
declarations when there is an element declaration handler
present (from a prior call to XML_SetElementDeclHandler).
Impact is denial of service or more.
Bug fixes:
#544 #545 xmlwf: Fix a memory leak on output file opening error
Other changes:
#546 Autotools: Fix broken CMake support under Cygwin
#554 Windows: Add missing files to the installer to fix
compilation with CMake from installed sources

expat: update to 2.4.3.
Release 2.4.3 Sun January 16 2022
Security fixes:
#531 #534 CVE-2021-45960 -- Fix issues with left shifts by >=29 places
resulting in
a) realloc acting as free
b) realloc allocating too few bytes
c) undefined behavior
depending on architecture and precise value
for XML documents with >=2^27+1 prefixed attributes
on a single XML tag a la
"<r xmlns:a='[..]' a:a123='[..]' [..] />"
where XML_ParserCreateNS is used to create the parser
(which needs argument "-n" when running xmlwf).
Impact is denial of service, or more.
#532 #538 CVE-2021-46143 (ZDI-CAN-16157) -- Fix integer overflow
on variable m_groupSize in function doProlog leading
to realloc acting as free.
Impact is denial of service or more.
#539 CVE-2022-22822 to CVE-2022-22827 -- Prevent integer overflows
near memory allocation at multiple places. Mitre assigned
