Description:
Updated mxml packages fix security vulnerabilities:

An issue has been found in Mini-XML (aka mxml) 2.12. It is a stack-based
buffer overflow in mxml_write_node in mxml-file.c via vectors involving
a double-precision floating point number and the '<order type="real">'
substring, as demonstrated by testmxml (CVE-2018-20004).

An issue has been found in Mini-XML (aka mxml) 2.12. It is a
use-after-free in mxmlWalkNext in mxml-search.c, as demonstrated by
mxmldoc (CVE-2018-20005).

In Mini-XML (aka mxml) v2.12, there is a use-after-free in the mxmlAdd
function of the mxml-node.c file. Remote attackers could leverage this
vulnerability to cause a denial-of-service via a crafted xml file, as
demonstrated by mxmldoc (CVE-2018-20592).

In Mini-XML (aka mxml) v2.12, there is stack-based buffer overflow in
the scan_file function in mxmldoc.c (CVE-2018-20593).
