According to the versions of the expat package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :
libexpat through 2.5.0 allows a denial of service (resource consumption) because many full reparsings are required in the case of a large token for which multiple buffer fills are needed.(CVE-2023-52425)
libexpat through 2.6.1 allows an XML Entity Expansion attack when there is isolated use of external parsers (created via XML_ExternalEntityParserCreate).(CVE-2024-28757)
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS expat security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
