+	  <p>It was discovered that libxml2, a library providing
+	     support to read, modify and write XML files, incorrectly
+	     performs entity substituton in the doctype prolog, even if
+	     the application using libxml2 disabled any entity
+	     substitution.  A remote attacker could provide a
+	     specially-crafted XML file that, when processed, would lead
+	     to the exhaustion of CPU and memory resources or file
+	     descriptors.</p>
+	  <p>This issue was discovered by Daniel Berrange of Red Hat.</p>
