"According to the versions of the libxml2 packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by
the following vulnerabilities :

    A flaw was found in the interactive shell of the xmllint command-line tool, used for parsing XML files.
    When a user inputs an overly long command, the program does not check the input size properly, which can
    cause it to crash. This issue might allow attackers to run harmful code in rare configurations without
    modern protections.(CVE-2025-6170)

    A flaw was found in libxml2's xmlBuildQName function, where integer overflows in buffer size calculations
    can lead to a stack-based buffer overflow. This issue can result in memory corruption or a denial of
    service when processing crafted input.(CVE-2025-6021)

    A use-after-free vulnerability was found in libxml2. This issue occurs when parsing XPath elements under
    certain circumstances when the XML schematron has the sch:name path='...'/ schema elements. This
    flaw allows a malicious actor to craft a malicious XML document used as input for libxml, resulting in the
    program's crash using libxml or other possible undefined behaviors.(CVE-2025-49794)

    A vulnerability was found in libxml2. Processing certain sch:name elements from the input XML file can
    trigger a memory corruption issue. This flaw allows an attacker to craft a malicious XML input file that
    can lead libxml to crash, resulting in a denial of service or other possible undefined behavior due to
    sensitive data being corrupted in memory.(CVE-2025-49796)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS libxml2 security advisory.

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