"According to the versions of the libxml2 packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by
the following vulnerabilities :
libxml2 is vulnerable to multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the xmlcatalog utility when running in
--shell mode. The usershell() function processes user input using fixed-size stack buffers without proper
bounds checking._x000D_
By supplying an overly long input line, an attacker can overflow internal buffers (command, arg, and argv)
during input parsing. This results in memory corruption within the stack frame._x000D_
Successful exploitation may cause a crash or potentially allow arbitrary code execution in the context of
the xmlcatalog process._x000D_
_x000D_
This issue has been fixed in the commit c2e233fc._x000D_
_x000D_
NOTE:_x000D_
The maintainers of this project did not agree that this issue is a vulnerability and considered it a
bug.(CVE-2026-11979)
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS libxml2 security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
