Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2017-07-12 15:32:03 UTC 
From ${URL} :

Use-after-free in the XML-LibXML module through 2.0129 for Perl allows attackers to execute arbitrary code by controlling the arguments to a replaceChild call.

Upstream issue:

@maintainer(s): after the bump, in case we need to stabilize the package, please let us know if it is ready for the stabilization or not.
