Hi,

the following vulnerability was published for libxml2.

CVE-2016-9318[0]:
| libxml2 2.9.4 and earlier, as used in XMLSec 1.2.23 and earlier and
| other products, does not offer a flag directly indicating that the
| current document may be read but other files may not be opened, which
| makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct XML External Entity
| (XXE) attacks via a crafted document.

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.

For further information see:

[0] https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2016-9318
[1] https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=772726

Please adjust the affected versions in the BTS as needed.

Regards,
Salvatore
