Backport upstream commit c9da977c178 to fix CVE-2026-58016 in
glib2. The fix corrects a broken logical condition in the D-Bus
introspection XML parser (gio/gdbusintrospection.c) that failed
to properly validate `<node>` element nesting. The original
negated tautological OR expression always evaluated to false;
the fix replaces it with the correct check. Includes new unit
tests for invalid XML parsing.

Subject: [PATCH] gdbusintrospection: Fix XML parser state handling for <node>
|
|
element nesting
|
|
|
|
The check for whether a `<node>` element in D-Bus introspection XML was
|
|
nested correctly was broken. `<node>` elements can only be at the top
|
|
level, or nested immediately within another `<node>` element.
|
|
|
|
Fix the check and add some unit tests for it.
|
|
|
|
Spotted by linhlhq as #YWH-PGM9867-204. The fix is mine, and the unit test
|
|
uses example XML strings adapted from their report.
