Description:
Updated libxslt packages fix security vulnerability:

Nicholas Gregoire discovered that libxslt incorrectly handled certain
empty values. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing
a specially crafted XSLT document, a remote attacker could cause libxslt
to crash, causing a denial of service (CVE-2012-6139).
