--- Comment #1 from Xin LI <delphij@FreeBSD.org> ---
For portmgr -- The two versions (2.4.2 and 2.4.3) are ABI and API compatibl=
e.

Code diff can be reviewed here:
https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat/compare/R_2_4_2...R_2_4_3

I've replaced my own desktop's expat2 with an independently created and alm=
ost
identical patch and didn't observed any issue (as expected).

Note that unlike the base system bundled expat2 (libbsdxml) which processes
mostly trusted data (GEOM, libmt were from kernel; the exception was
unbound-anchor, but that was signed data), vulnerabilities in port expat2 c=
ould
be a greater threat.
