therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TSSA-2022:0127 advisory.

    Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2022-29824:
    In libxml2 before 2.9.14, several buffer handling functions in buf.c (xmlBuf*) and tree.c (xmlBuffer*)
    don't check for integer overflows. This can result in out-of-bounds memory writes. Exploitation requires a
    victim to open a crafted, multi-gigabyte XML file. Other software using libxml2's buffer functions, for
    example libxslt through 1.1.35, is affected as well.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.

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