    Hi,

    The following vulnerability was published for libxslt.

    CVE-2025-7425[0]:
    | A flaw was found in libxslt where the attribute type, atype, flags
    | are modified in a way that corrupts internal memory management. When
    | XSLT functions, such as the key() process, result in tree fragments,
    | this corruption prevents the proper cleanup of ID attributes. As a
    | result, the system may access freed memory, causing crashes or
    | enabling attackers to trigger heap corruption.


    If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
    CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
