CVE-2026-32327 is a moderate-severity vulnerability in Apache Portable Runtime Utility (APR-util) affecting version 1.6.3 and earlier. The flaw is in the apr_xml_quote_elem() function and can be triggered in applications or libraries that parse XML from untrusted sources and invoke this function during processing. The bug allows a stack recursion attack, causing uncontrolled or excessive recursive behavior in the call path associated with XML element quoting. In affected consumers, specially crafted untrusted XML input can drive the vulnerable code path and exhaust stack space, resulting in process instability or termination.
