Freshness: upstream tracker timestamp is available; use API updated time as primary recency signal.
CVE-2008-3281 medium priority: Ubuntu including 1 source packages (libxml2), 5 status rows across 5 suites (dapper, feisty, gutsy, hardy, upstream): released 5.
libxml2 2.6.32 and earlier does not properly detect recursion during entity expansion in an attribute value, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a crafted XML document.
