The remote CentOS Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the CESA-2022:1069 advisory.

  • expat: Large number of prefixed XML attributes on a single tag can crash libexpat (CVE-2021-45960)

  • expat: Integer overflow in doProlog in xmlparse.c (CVE-2021-46143)

  • expat: Integer overflow in addBinding in xmlparse.c (CVE-2022-22822)

  • expat: Integer overflow in build_model in xmlparse.c (CVE-2022-22823)

  • expat: Integer overflow in defineAttribute in xmlparse.c (CVE-2022-22824)

  • expat: Integer overflow in lookup in xmlparse.c (CVE-2022-22825)

  • expat: Integer overflow in nextScaffoldPart in xmlparse.c (CVE-2022-22826)

  • expat: Integer overflow in storeAtts in xmlparse.c (CVE-2022-22827)

  • expat: Integer overflow in function XML_GetBuffer (CVE-2022-23852)

  • expat: Malformed 2- and 3-byte UTF-8 sequences can lead to arbitrary code execution (CVE-2022-25235)

  • expat: Namespace-separator characters in xmlns[:prefix] attribute values can lead to arbitrary code execution (CVE-2022-25236)

  • expat: Integer overflow in storeRawNames() (CVE-2022-25315)

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