RHSA-2020:4005 advisory.

  - libxslt through 1.1.33 allows bypass of a protection mechanism because callers of xsltCheckRead and
    xsltCheckWrite permit access even upon receiving a -1 error code. xsltCheckRead can return -1 for a
    crafted URL that is not actually invalid and is subsequently loaded. (CVE-2019-11068)

  - In xsltCopyText in transform.c in libxslt 1.1.33, a pointer variable isn't reset under certain
    circumstances. If the relevant memory area happened to be freed and reused in a certain way, a bounds
    check could fail and memory outside a buffer could be written to, or uninitialized data could be
    disclosed. (CVE-2019-18197)

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