    libexpat before 2.8.2 lacks handler call depth tracking for calls to XML_GetBuffer, XML_Parse,     XML_ParseBuffer, XML_ParserFree, or XML_ParserReset from within handlers in cases of a policy violation.
    Thus, a use-after-free can occur, (CVE-2026-50219)

    libexpat before 2.8.2 lacks handler call depth tracking for calls to XML_ResumeParser from within handlers     in cases of a policy violation. Thus, a use-after-free can occur (similar to the CVE-2026-50219     situation). (CVE-2026-56131)

    In libexpat before 2.8.2, there is a heap-based buffer overflow in doProlog in xmlparse.c because scaffold     backing array reallocation is mishandled when there is data-structure sharing across parsers.
    (CVE-2026-56132)

    A heap buffer overflow vulnerability was found in libaom, the reference AV1 codec implementation. A flaw     in the AV1 encoder's Look-Ahead Processing (LAP) mode causes the first-pass stats ring buffer wrap-around     guard to be bypassed when g_lag_in_frames is set to 1 or higher. This results in a 232-byte out-of-bounds     write on every encoded frame after the second, corrupting adjacent heap objects. An attacker who can     influence encoder configuration in a transcoding service or WebRTC session could exploit this to cause a     denial of service (process crash) or potentially achieve code execution. (CVE-2026-56208)

    A heap-buffer-overflow read vulnerability was found in libaom, the reference AV1 codec implementation. A     missing bounds check in the SVC (Scalable Video Coding) layer ID control function allows setting a     spatial_layer_id exceeding the configured number of layers. This causes an out-of-bounds heap read of     approximately 40,728 bytes when computing a layer context array index. An attacker who can influence SVC     encoder parameters in a network-facing service could exploit this for information disclosure (heap content     leak) or denial of service (segmentation fault from hitting unmapped memory). (CVE-2026-56210)

    A remote code execution vulnerability was found in libaom, the reference AV1 codec implementation.
    Insufficient bounds validation in the AV1 encoder's SVC (Scalable Video Coding) layer ID control allows an     attacker to supply crafted video frame pixels that overlap with internal encoder layer context structures.
    In fork-based video processing services, an attacker can use this to hijack the cyclic refresh map     pointer, brute-force the process base address via a crash oracle, and redirect control flow to achieve     arbitrary command execution. Exploitation requires the target service to use libaom with SVC encoding     enabled and accept attacker-supplied video frames. (CVE-2026-56211)

    libexpat before 2.8.2 has an integer overflow in copyString. (CVE-2026-56408)

    libexpat before 2.8.2 does not consider XML_TOK_DATA_CHARS in doCdataSection and thus lacks handler call     depth tracking for various calls from within handlers in cases of a policy violation. Thus, a use-after-     free can occur. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-50219. (CVE-2026-56412)

    libexpat before 2.8.2 lacks handler call depth tracking for calls to XML_GetBuffer, XML_Parse,     XML_ParseBuffer, XML_ParserFree, or XML_ParserReset from within handlers in cases of a policy violation.
    Thus, a use-after-free can occur, (CVE-2026-50219)

    libexpat before 2.8.2 lacks handler call depth tracking for calls to XML_ResumeParser from within handlers     in cases of a policy violation. Thus, a use-after-free can occur (similar to the CVE-2026-50219     situation). (CVE-2026-56131)

    In libexpat before 2.8.2, there is a heap-based buffer overflow in doProlog in xmlparse.c because scaffold     backing array reallocation is mishandled when there is data-structure sharing across parsers.
    (CVE-2026-56132)

    A heap buffer overflow vulnerability was found in libaom, the reference AV1 codec implementation. A flaw     in the AV1 encoder's Look-Ahead Processing (LAP) mode causes the first-pass stats ring buffer wrap-around     guard to be bypassed when g_lag_in_frames is set to 1 or higher. This results in a 232-byte out-of-bounds     write on every encoded frame after the second, corrupting adjacent heap objects. An attacker who can     influence encoder configuration in a transcoding service or WebRTC session could exploit this to cause a     denial of service (process crash) or potentially achieve code execution. (CVE-2026-56208)

    A heap-buffer-overflow read vulnerability was found in libaom, the reference AV1 codec implementation. A     missing bounds check in the SVC (Scalable Video Coding) layer ID control function allows setting a     spatial_layer_id exceeding the configured number of layers. This causes an out-of-bounds heap read of     approximately 40,728 bytes when computing a layer context array index. An attacker who can influence SVC     encoder parameters in a network-facing service could exploit this for information disclosure (heap content     leak) or denial of service (segmentation fault from hitting unmapped memory). (CVE-2026-56210)

    A remote code execution vulnerability was found in libaom, the reference AV1 codec implementation.
    Insufficient bounds validation in the AV1 encoder's SVC (Scalable Video Coding) layer ID control allows an     attacker to supply crafted video frame pixels that overlap with internal encoder layer context structures.
    In fork-based video processing services, an attacker can use this to hijack the cyclic refresh map     pointer, brute-force the process base address via a crash oracle, and redirect control flow to achieve     arbitrary command execution. Exploitation requires the target service to use libaom with SVC encoding     enabled and accept attacker-supplied video frames. (CVE-2026-56211)

    libexpat before 2.8.2 has an integer overflow in storeAtts. (CVE-2026-56403)

    libexpat before 2.8.2 has an integer overflow in addBinding. (CVE-2026-56404)

    libexpat before 2.8.2 has an integer overflow in getAttributeId. (CVE-2026-56405)

    libexpat before 2.8.2 has an integer overflow in XML_ParseBuffer because it lacked a check that was     present in XML_Parse. (CVE-2026-56406)

    libexpat before 2.8.2 has an integer overflow in doProlog that is related to storeEntityValue and entity     textLen. (CVE-2026-56407)

    libexpat before 2.8.2 has an integer overflow in copyString. (CVE-2026-56408)

    libexpat before 2.8.2 does not consider XML_TOK_DATA_CHARS in doCdataSection and thus lacks handler call     depth tracking for various calls from within handlers in cases of a policy violation. Thus, a use-after-     free can occur. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-50219. (CVE-2026-56412)

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

    depth tracking for various calls from within handlers in cases of a policy violation. Thus, a use-after-

  - libexpat before 2.8.2 has an integer overflow in storeAtts. (CVE-2026-56403)

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the d06b1fa2-731f-11f1-a0d2-589cfc10a551 advisory.

    Expat 2.8.2 was released yesterday. The key motivation for cutting a release and doing so now was     getting security and non-security bugsfixes out to users. On the security side,     13 vulnerabilities have been fixed:

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

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

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

  - libexpat before 2.8.2 lacks handler call depth tracking for calls to XML_GetBuffer, XML_Parse,     XML_ParseBuffer, XML_ParserFree, or XML_ParserReset from within handlers in cases of a policy violation.
    Thus, a use-after-free can occur, (CVE-2026-50219)

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