"According to the versions of the libxml2 packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by
the following vulnerabilities :
- There's a flaw in libxml2's xmllint in versions before 2.9.11. An attacker who is able to submit a crafted
file to be processed by xmllint could trigger a use-after-free. The greatest impact of this flaw is to
confidentiality, integrity, and availability. (CVE-2021-3516)
- There is a flaw in the xml entity encoding functionality of libxml2 in versions before 2.9.11. An attacker
who is able to supply a crafted file to be processed by an application linked with the affected
functionality of libxml2 could trigger an out-of-bounds read. The most likely impact of this flaw is to
application availability, with some potential impact to confidentiality and integrity if an attacker is
able to use memory information to further exploit the application. (CVE-2021-3517)
- There's a flaw in libxml2 in versions before 2.9.11. An attacker who is able to submit a crafted file to
be processed by an application linked with libxml2 could trigger a use-after-free. The greatest impact
from this flaw is to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. (CVE-2021-3518)
- A vulnerability found in libxml2 in versions before 2.9.11 shows that it did not propagate errors while
parsing XML mixed content, causing a NULL dereference. If an untrusted XML document was parsed in recovery
mode and post-validated, the flaw could be used to crash the application. The highest threat from this
vulnerability is to system availability. (CVE-2021-3537)
- A flaw was found in libxml2. Exponential entity expansion attack its possible bypassing all existing
protection mechanisms and leading to denial of service. (CVE-2021-3541)

advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional
