Last modified
CVE-2012-3514 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. OCaml Xml-Light Library before r234 computes hash values without restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via unspecified vectors.. EPSS estimates a 1.50% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
