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

    libexpat before 2.8.2 lacks handler call depth tracking for calls to XML_GetBuffer, XML_Parse,
    XML_ParseBuffer, XML_ParserFree, or XML_ParserReset from within handlers in cases of a policy violation.
    Thus, a use-after-free can occur,(CVE-2026-50219)

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

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