"The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202402-11 (libxml2: Multiple Vulnerabilities)

  - In libxml2 before 2.10.4, parsing of certain invalid XSD schemas can lead to a NULL pointer dereference
    and subsequently a segfault. This occurs in xmlSchemaFixupComplexType in xmlschemas.c. (CVE-2023-28484)

  - An issue was discovered in libxml2 before 2.10.4. When hashing empty dict strings in a crafted XML
    document, xmlDictComputeFastKey in dict.c can produce non-deterministic values, leading to various logic
    and memory errors, such as a double free. This behavior occurs because there is an attempt to use the
    first byte of an empty string, and any value is possible (not solely the '\0' value). (CVE-2023-29469)

  - libxml2 through 2.11.5 has a use-after-free that can only occur after a certain memory allocation fails.
    This occurs in xmlUnlinkNode in tree.c. NOTE: the vendor's position is I don't think these issues are
    critical enough to warrant a CVE ID ... because an attacker typically can't control when memory
    allocations fail. (CVE-2023-45322)

  - An issue was discovered in libxml2 before 2.11.7 and 2.12.x before 2.12.5. When using the XML Reader
    interface with DTD validation and XInclude expansion enabled, processing crafted XML documents can lead to
    an xmlValidatePopElement use-after-free. (CVE-2024-25062)

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