The remote host is missing an update for the Huawei EulerOS 'libxml2' package(s) announced via the EulerOS-SA-2023-2514 advisory. An issue was discovered in libxml2 before 2.10.4 regarding non-deterministic values, leading to various logic and memory errors, and parsing of certain invalid XSD schemas leading to a NULL pointer dereference and subsequently a segfault
