Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - GeoServer is an open source software server written in Java that allows users to share and edit geospatial
 data. A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in versions prior to 2.23.4 and 2.24.1 that
 enables an authenticated administrator with workspace-level privileges to store a JavaScript payload in
 the GeoServer catalog that will execute in the context of another user's browser when viewed in the MapML
 HTML Page. The MapML extension must be installed and access to the MapML HTML Page is available to all
