library to read Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, which might result in
denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code if a malformed Excel
file is opened.

DSA-3205 batik – security update
Nicolas Gregoire and Kevin Schaller discovered that Batik, a toolkit
for processing SVG images, would load XML external entities by
default. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a

Researchers at INRIA and Xamarin discovered several vulnerabilities in
mono, a platform for running and developing applications based on the
ECMA/ISO Standards. Mono’s TLS stack contained several problems that
hampered its capabilities: those issues could lead to client
impersonation (via SKIP-TLS), SSLv2 fallback, and encryption weakening
(via FREAK).
