"The version of Tenable Log Correlation Engine (LCE) installed on the
remote host is a version prior to 4.8.0. It is, therefore, affected by
a denial of service vulnerability in the bundled version of Libxml2
due to an infinite loop condition in the xz_decomp() function. An
unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this by convincing a user
to input specially crafted XML content, to exhaust available system
resources, resulting in a denial of service condition.");
