"The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple
vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - libxml2: Missing validation for external entities in xmlParsePEReference (CVE-2017-7375)

  - The xmlBufAttrSerializeTxtContent function in xmlsave.c in libxml2 allows context-dependent attackers to
    cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and application crash) via a non-UTF-8 attribute value,
    related to serialization. NOTE: this vulnerability may be a duplicate of CVE-2016-3627. (CVE-2016-4483)

  - libxml2 2.9.4 and earlier, as used in XMLSec 1.2.23 and earlier and other products, does not offer a flag
    directly indicating that the current document may be read but other files may not be opened, which makes
    it easier for remote attackers to conduct XML External Entity (XXE) attacks via a crafted document.
    (CVE-2016-9318)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package
is installed.");
