+Subject: [PATCH] lib: Make `XML_Index` overflow check more intuitive
+
+In fixing a bug, 7e5b71b748491b6e459e5c9a1d090820f94544d8 introduced a
+magic number `2` in this code that made it difficult to understand the
+rationale for this overflow check without reading the commit log. This
+change introduces some more readable constants to use in these
+situations.
+
+CVE: CVE-2026-56406
+Upstream-Status: Backport [https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat/commit/252ff1a307b1490ce0f430632791e7e52d7e43fd]
+
+(cherry picked from commit 252ff1a307b1490ce0f430632791e7e52d7e43fd)
