+	  <p>The Xerces-C XML parser mishandles certain kinds of malformed input
+	  documents, resulting in buffer overlows during processing and error
+	  reporting. The overflows can manifest as a segmentation fault or as
+	  memory corruption during a parse operation.  The bugs allow for a
+	  denial of service attack in many applications by an unauthenticated
+	  attacker, and could conceivably result in remote code execution.</p>
