Google says: > Similar to the severe security issues in libxslt, severe security issues were recently reported against libxml2 which is used in Chromium for parsing, serialization and testing the well-formedness of XML. To address future security issues with XML parsing In Chromium we plan to phase out the usage of libxml2 and replace XML parsing with a memory-safe XML parsing library written in Rust Perhaps there are some Rust gurus out there that can deliver a XSLT crate in a similar fashion, which other folks can then integrate? The problem seems to be that the current libxslt library is buggy due to the use of C++, an unsafe language (use after free etc.). [BTW, Chris Hanson's old book "C: Interfaces and Implementations" demonstrated how to code in C in a way that avoids use after free: use pointers to pointers instead of pointers and set them to zero upon free-ing memory blocks; e.g. /* source: https://github.com/drh/cii/blob/master/src/arena.c */ void Arena_dispose(T *ap) { assert(ap && *ap); Arena_free(*ap); free(*ap); *ap = NULL; /* avoid use after free */ } ]
