"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.02, has expat packages installed that are affected by multiple
vulnerabilities:

  - In libexpat in Expat before 2.2.7, XML input including XML names that contain a large number of colons
    could make the XML parser consume a high amount of RAM and CPU resources while processing (enough to be
    usable for denial-of-service attacks). (CVE-2018-20843)

  - In libexpat before 2.2.8, crafted XML input could fool the parser into changing from DTD parsing to
    document parsing too early; a consecutive call to XML_GetCurrentLineNumber (or XML_GetCurrentColumnNumber)
    then resulted in a heap-based buffer over-read. (CVE-2019-15903)

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