The remote Rocky Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RLSA-2024:2679 advisory.

  • 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 this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
