A flaw was found in PHP. The `DOMNode::C14N()` method may incorrectly process XML data due to the improper removal of an `xmlns` attribute from the underlying libxml2 data structure, corrupting the linked list representing the XML document and causing an infinite loop. This issue can lead to excessive resource consumption, eventually resulting in a denial of service in the processing application.
