The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-2994-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that libxml2 incorrectly handled certain malformed documents. If a user or automated     system were tricked into opening a specially crafted document, an attacker could possibly cause libxml2 to     crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2015-8806, CVE-2016-2073, CVE-2016-3627, CVE-2016-3705,     CVE-2016-4447)

    It was discovered that libxml2 incorrectly handled certain malformed documents. If a user or automated     system were tricked into opening a specially crafted document, an attacker could cause libxml2 to crash,     resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1762, CVE-2016-1834)

    Mateusz Jurczyk discovered that libxml2 incorrectly handled certain malformed documents. If a user or     automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted document, an attacker could cause libxml2     to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1833,     CVE-2016-1838, CVE-2016-1839)

    Wei Lei and Liu Yang discovered that libxml2 incorrectly handled certain malformed documents. If a user or     automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted document, an attacker could cause libxml2     to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1835,     CVE-2016-1837)

    Wei Lei and Liu Yang discovered that libxml2 incorrectly handled certain malformed documents. If a user or     automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted document, an attacker could cause libxml2     to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only applied to     Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, Ubuntu 15.10 and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2016-1836)

An update for libxml2 is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

[Updated 18 July 2016] This advisory has been updated to push packages into the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Desktop channels. The packages included in this revised update have not been changed in any way from the packages included in the original advisory.

The libxml2 library is a development toolbox providing the implementation of various XML standards.

Security Fix(es) :

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way libxml2 parsed certain crafted XML input. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted XML file that, when opened in an application linked against libxml2, would cause the application to crash or execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running the application.
(CVE-2016-1834, CVE-2016-1840)

Multiple denial of service flaws were found in libxml2. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted XML file that, when processed by an application using libxml2, could cause that application to crash. (CVE-2016-1762, CVE-2016-1833, CVE-2016-1835, CVE-2016-1836, CVE-2016-1837, CVE-2016-1838, CVE-2016-1839, CVE-2016-3627, CVE-2016-3705, CVE-2016-4447, CVE-2016-4448, CVE-2016-4449)

The xmlPArserPrintFileContextInternal function in libxml2 before 2.9.4, as used in Apple iOS before 9.3.2, OS X before 10.11.5, tvOS before 9.2.1, and watchOS before 2.2.1, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read) via a crafted XML document.(CVE-2016-1838)

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201701-37 (libxml2: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in libxml2. Please review       the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to process a       specially crafted XML document, possibly resulting in execution of       arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or a Denial of Service       condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Update to latest upstream release, includes several security related fixes.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora update system website.
Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The mobile device is running a version of iOS prior to 9.3.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities in the following components :

  - Accessibility

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.
