Synopsis:   Moderate: xmlsec1 security and bug fix update
Issue date: 2011-05-04
CVE Names:  CVE-2011-1425

A flaw was found in the way xmlsec1 handled XML files that contain an XSLT
transformation specification. A specially-crafted XML file could cause
xmlsec1 to create or overwrite an arbitrary file while performing the
verification of a file's digital signature. (CVE-2011-1425)

After installing the update, all running applications that use the 
xmlsec1 library must be restarted for
the update to take effect.
