Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libxml-libxml-perl' package(s) announced via the DSA-3243-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Tilmann Haak from xing.com discovered that XML::LibXML, a Perl interface to the libxml2 library, did not respect the expand_entities parameter to disable processing of external entities in some circumstances.
