EulerOS 2.0 SP12 : python-lxml (EulerOS-SA-2026-2618)

high Nessus Plugin ID 326153

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the versions of the python-lxml packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 lxml is a library for processing XML and HTML in the Python language. Prior to 6.1.0, using either of the two parsers in the default configuration (with resolve_entities=True) allows untrusted XML input to read local files. Setting the resolve_entities option explicitly to resolve_entities='internal' or resolve_entities=False disables the local file access. This vulnerability is fixed in 6.1.0.(CVE-2026-41066)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS python-lxml security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the affected python-lxml packages.
