-Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Add missing increments of recursion depth counter to XML
- parser.
-
-The functions xmlParserEntityCheck() and xmlParseAttValueComplex() used to call
-xmlStringDecodeEntities() in a recursive context without incrementing the
-'depth' counter in the parser context. Because of that omission, the parser
-failed to detect attribute recursions in certain documents before running out
-of stack space.
