From: Baruch Siach Date: Mon, 26 Mar 2018 20:23:02 +0000 (+0300) Subject: xerces: add upstream security fix X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=142c8cc8d525f687ce199cc0163d48892e8a81f7;p=buildroot.git xerces: add upstream security fix CVE-2017-12627: dereference of a NULL pointer while processing the path to the DTD. xerces 3.2.1 includes this patch. But this version also added AC_RUN_IFELSE to its configure script, making cross compilation harder. Switching to cmake is also problematic since the minimum required cmake version is 3.2.0. The host dependencies check currently allows minimum cmake version 3.1.
