Hey guys,


I hope this is the proper way to report a bug in one of the packages you're maintaining on Ubuntu 14.04. We found an issue on the XSECSafeBuffer compilation unit, in the Santuario project (xml-security-c package).


The fix has already been applied over the project's upstream, after we contacted one of the developers. You can see the comment over here: https://github.com/apache/santuario-cpp/pull/2.


You may find attached to this message a patch file with the fix.
