CVE-2026-56412
Multiple security issues were discovered in expat, an XML parsing C library,
including integer overflows, out-of-bounds write, NULL pointer dereferences,
excessive resource consumption, and memory corruption through re-entrant
parser API calls, which may result in denial of service or potentially the
execution of arbitrary code.
For the stable distribution (trixie), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.8.2-1~deb13u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your expat packages.
For the detailed security status of expat please refer to
its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/expat
Further information about Debian Security Advisories, how to apply
these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
