CVE-2009-3720 expat: buffer over-read and crash on XML with malformed 
UTF-8 sequences

A buffer over-read flaw was found in the way 4Suite's XML parser handles
malformed UTF-8 sequences when processing XML files. A specially-crafted
XML file could cause applications using the 4Suite library to crash 
while parsing the file. (CVE-2009-3720)

After installing the updated package, applications using the 4Suite 
XML-related tools and libraries must be restarted for the update to take 
effect.
