"The remote Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the

    Package updates are available for Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2025-7425:
    A flaw was found in libxslt where the attribute type, atype, flags are modified in a way that corrupts
    internal memory management. When XSLT functions, such as the key() process, result in tree fragments, this
    corruption prevents the proper cleanup of ID attributes. As a result, the system may access freed memory,
    causing crashes or enabling attackers to trigger heap corruption.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Alibaba Cloud Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
