The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - A buffer overflow was discovered in libxml2 20904-GITv2.9.4-16-g0741801. The function     xmlSnprintfElementContent in valid.c is supposed to recursively dump the element content definition into a     char buffer 'buf' of size 'size'. The variable len is assigned strlen(buf). If the content->type is     XML_ELEMENT_CONTENT_ELEMENT, then (i) the content->prefix is appended to buf (if it actually fits)     whereupon (ii) content->name is written to the buffer. However, the check for whether the content->name     actually fits also uses 'len' rather than the updated buffer length strlen(buf). This allows us to write     about size many bytes beyond the allocated memory. This vulnerability causes programs that use libxml2,     such as PHP, to crash. (CVE-2017-9047)

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

This update for libxml2 fixes the following security issues :

  - CVE-2017-9050: A heap-based buffer over-read in     xmlDictAddString (bsc#1039069, bsc#1039661)

  - CVE-2017-9049: A heap-based buffer overflow in     xmlDictComputeFastKey (bsc#1039066)

  - CVE-2017-9048: A stack overflow vulnerability in     xmlSnprintfElementContent (bsc#1039063)

  - CVE-2017-9047: A stack overflow vulnerability in     xmlSnprintfElementContent (bsc#1039064)

This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-12-SP2:Update update project.

Update to 2.9.7 which hopefully fixes all security issues

    Package        : libxml2     Version        : 2.9.10+dfsg-6.7+deb11u6     CVE ID         : CVE-2022-49043 CVE-2023-39615 CVE-2023-45322 CVE-2024-25062                      CVE-2024-56171 CVE-2025-24928 CVE-2025-27113     Debian Bug     : 1051230 1053629 1063234 1094238 1098320 1098321 1098322

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in libxml2, a library providing     support to read, modify and write XML and HTML files. These     vulnerabilities could potentially lead to denial of servie or other     unintended behaviors.

    CVE-2022-49043

        xmlXIncludeAddNode in xinclude.c in libxml2 before 2.11.0 has a         use-after-free.

    CVE-2023-39615

        libxml2 v2.11.0 was discovered to contain an out-of-bounds read via         the xmlSAX2StartElement() function at /libxml2/SAX2.c. This         vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS)         via supplying a crafted XML file. NOTE: the vendor's position is         that the product does not support the legacy SAX1 interface with         custom callbacks; there is a crash even without crafted input.

    CVE-2023-45322

        libxml2 through 2.11.5 has a use-after-free that can only occur         after a certain memory allocation fails. This occurs in         xmlUnlinkNode in tree.c. NOTE: the vendor's position is I don't         think these issues are critical enough to warrant a CVE ID ...
        because an attacker typically can't control when memory allocations         fail.

    CVE-2024-25062

        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-2024-56171

        libxml2 before 2.12.10 and 2.13.x before 2.13.6 has a use-after-free         in xmlSchemaIDCFillNodeTables and xmlSchemaBubbleIDCNodeTables in         xmlschemas.c. To exploit this, a crafted XML document must be         validated against an XML schema with certain identity constraints,         or a crafted XML schema must be used.

    CVE-2025-24928

        libxml2 before 2.12.10 and 2.13.x before 2.13.6 has a stack-based         buffer overflow in xmlSnprintfElements in valid.c. To exploit this,         DTD validation must occur for an untrusted document or untrusted         DTD. NOTE: this is similar to CVE-2017-9047.

    CVE-2025-27113

        libxml2 before 2.12.10 and 2.13.x before 2.13.6 has a NULL pointer         dereference in xmlPatMatch in pattern.c.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version     2.9.10+dfsg-6.7+deb11u6.

    We recommend that you upgrade your libxml2 packages.

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

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

According to its self-reported version, the Nessus Network Monitor running on the remote host is prior to 6.2.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TNS-2023-23 advisory. Several of the third-party components were found to contain vulnerabilities, and updated versions have been made available by the providers. Out of caution and in line with best practice, Tenable has opted to upgrade these components to address the potential impact of the issues. Nessus Network Monitor 6.2.2 updates the following components:

  - c-ares from version 1.10.0 to version 1.19.1.
  - curl from version 7.79.1 to version 8.1.2.
  - libbzip2 from version 1.0.6 to version 1.0.8.
  - libpcre from version 8.42 to version 8.44.
  - libxml2 from version 2.7.7 to version 2.11.1.
  - libxslt from version 1.1.26 to version 1.1.37.
  - libxmlsec from version 1.2.18 to version 1.2.37.
  - sqlite from version 3.27.2 to version 3.40.1.
  - jQuery Cookie from version 1.3.1 to version 1.4.1.
  - jQuery UI from version 1.13.0 to version 1.13.2.
  - OpenSSL from version 3.0.8 to version 3.0.9.

According to the version of the libxml2 packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

  - A buffer overflow was discovered in libxml2     20904-GITv2.9.4-16-g0741801. The function     xmlSnprintfElementContent in valid.c is supposed to     recursively dump the element content definition into a     char buffer 'buf' of size 'size'. The variable len is     assigned strlen(buf). If the content-i1/4ztype is     XML_ELEMENT_CONTENT_ELEMENT, then (i) the     content-i1/4zprefix is appended to buf (if it actually     fits) whereupon (ii) content-i1/4zname is written to the     buffer. However, the check for whether the     content-i1/4zname actually fits also uses 'len' rather     than the updated buffer length strlen(buf). This allows     us to write about 'size' many bytes beyond the     allocated memory. This vulnerability causes programs     that use libxml2, such as PHP, to crash.(CVE-2017-9047)

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in libxml2, a library providing support to read, modify and write XML and HTML files. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted XML or HTML file that, when processed by an application using libxml2, would cause a denial-of-service against the application, information leaks, or potentially, the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3424-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that a type confusion error existed in libxml2. An attacker could use this to specially     construct XML data that could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2017-0663)

    It was discovered that libxml2 did not properly validate parsed entity references. An attacker could use     this to specially construct XML data that could expose sensitive information. (CVE-2017-7375)

    It was discovered that a buffer overflow existed in libxml2 when handling HTTP redirects. An attacker     could use this to specially construct XML data that could cause a denial of service or possibly execute     arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-7376)

    Marcel Bhme and Van-Thuan Pham discovered a buffer overflow in libxml2 when handling elements. An     attacker could use this to specially construct XML data that could cause a denial of service or possibly     execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-9047)

    Marcel Bhme and Van-Thuan Pham discovered a buffer overread in libxml2 when handling elements. An     attacker could use this to specially construct XML data that could cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2017-9048)

    Marcel Bhme and Van-Thuan Pham discovered multiple buffer overreads in libxml2 when handling parameter-     entity references. An attacker could use these to specially construct XML data that could cause a denial     of service. (CVE-2017-9049, CVE-2017-9050)

libxml2 20904-GITv2.9.4-16-g0741801 is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow. The function xmlSnprintfElementContent in valid.c is supposed to recursively dump the element content definition into a char buffer 'buf' of size 'size'. At the end of the routine, the function may strcat two more characters without checking whether the current strlen(buf) + 2 < size. This vulnerability causes programs that use libxml2, such as PHP, to crash.

libxml2 20904-GITv2.9.4-16-g0741801 is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer over-read in the xmlDictComputeFastKey function in dict.c. This vulnerability causes programs that use libxml2, such as PHP, to crash.
This vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for libxml2 Bug 759398.
