Description of problem: libtlen contains an old embedded version of the expat xml parsing library. Code inspection shows this embedded copy is vulnerable to CVE-2009-3720 and possibly other issues. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Version: 0 Release: 0.9.20060309.fc12 Additional info: Ideally, the best solution is to link in the system expat library and not use the embedded copy. This would help prevent these types of security issues from reoccuring. I have marked this issue as a security issue due to the fact that a CVE was assigned to expat. I have not investigated how this vulnerability would be triggered by libtlen.
