+ <p>The Xerces-C XML parser fails to successfully parse a
+ DTD that is deeply nested, and this causes a stack overflow, which
+ makes a denial of service attack against many applications possible
+ by an unauthenticated attacker.</p>
+ <p>Also, CVE-2016-2099: Use-after-free vulnerability in
+ validators/DTD/DTDScanner.cpp in Apache Xerces C++ 3.1.3 and earlier
+ allows context-dependent attackers to have unspecified impact via an
+ invalid character in an XML document.</p>
