According to the versions of the expat package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

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)

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)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS Virtualization 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.
