+Subject: [PATCH] Fix out-of-bounds read with 'xmllint --htmlout'
+
+Make sure that truncated UTF-8 sequences don't cause an out-of-bounds
+array access.
+
+Thanks to @SuhwanSong and the Agency for Defense Development (ADD) for
+the report.
+
+Fixes #178.
+
+CVE: CVE-2020-24977
+Upstream-Status: Backport [https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/commit/50f06b3efb638efb0abd95dc62dca05ae67882c2]
