Description

According to the versions of the libXpm package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - A vulnerability was found in libX11 due to an infinite loop within the PutSubImage() function. This flaw allows a local user to consume all available system resources and cause a denial of service condition.
 (CVE-2023-43786)
