 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDVSA-2014:088
 http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package : python-lxml
 Date    : May 15, 2014
 Affected: Business Server 1.0, Enterprise Server 5.0
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 Updated python-lxml packages fix security vulnerability:

 The clean_html() function, provided by the lxml.html.clean module,
 did not properly clean HTML input if it included non-printed characters
 (\x01-\x08). A remote attacker could use this flaw to serve malicious
 content to an application using the clean_html() function to process
 HTML, possibly allowing the attacker to inject malicious code into
 a website generated by this application (CVE-2014-3146).
