Hello,

libxml2 earlier than 2.9.0 fetches external parsed entities by default, with no
way to disable the behaviour.

Fixed by the following commit:

https://git.gnome.org/browse/libxml2/commit/?id=4629ee02ac649c27f9c0cf98ba017c6b5526070f

Could a CVE please be assigned to this issue?

Sounds like http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2013/q1/391  
and
"Please use CVE-2013-0339 for libxml2 external entities expansion"

?

Ciao, Marus
