  - In Apache Batik before 1.9, files lying on the filesystem of the server which uses batik can be revealed
    to arbitrary users who send maliciously formed SVG files. The file types that can be shown depend on the
    user context in which the exploitable application is running. If the user is root a full compromise of the
    server - including confidential or sensitive files - would be possible. XXE can also be used to attack the
    availability of the server via denial of service as the references within a xml document can trivially
    trigger an amplification attack. (CVE-2017-5662)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
