CVE-2022-50998

Name	CVE-2022-50998
Description	Nokogiri before 1.13.9 (CRuby implementation using packaged libraries) bundles libxml2 v2.9.14, which is affected by CVE-2022-40304 (data corruption / double-free from an entity reference cycle when entity content is allocated from a dict) and CVE-2022-40303 (integer overflows when parsing with XML_PARSE_HUGE). Nokogiri 1.13.9 upgrades the packaged libxml2 to v2.10.3 to address these issues. Processing crafted XML input may lead to denial of service or memory corruption. (The advisory also references CVE-2022-2309, a NULL pointer dereference via iterwalk/canonicalize, which maintainers determined does not affect Nokogiri users.)
