"The remote Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced

Package updates are available for Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:
CVE-2025-64720:
LIBPNG is a reference library for use in applications that read, create, and manipulate PNG (Portable
Network Graphics) raster image files. From version 1.6.0 to before 1.6.51, an out-of-bounds read
vulnerability exists in png_image_read_composite when processing palette images with
PNG_FLAG_OPTIMIZE_ALPHA enabled. The palette compositing code in png_init_read_transformations incorrectly
applies background compositing during premultiplication, violating the invariant component alpha
257 required by the simplified PNG API. This issue has been patched in version 1.6.51.
CVE-2025-65018:
LIBPNG is a reference library for use in applications that read, create, and manipulate PNG (Portable
Network Graphics) raster image files. From version 1.6.0 to before 1.6.51, there is a heap buffer overflow
vulnerability in the libpng simplified API function png_image_finish_read when processing 16-bit
interlaced PNGs with 8-bit output format. Attacker-crafted interlaced PNG files cause heap writes beyond
allocated buffer bounds. This issue has been patched in version 1.6.51.
CVE-2025-66293:
LIBPNG is a reference library for use in applications that read, create, and manipulate PNG (Portable
Network Graphics) raster image files. Prior to 1.6.52, an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in libpng's
simplified API allows reading up to 1012 bytes beyond the png_sRGB_base[512] array when processing valid
palette PNG images with partial transparency and gamma correction. The PNG files that trigger this
vulnerability are valid per the PNG specification; the bug is in libpng's internal state management.
Upgrade to libpng 1.6.52 or later.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Alibaba Cloud Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
