Description

The remote openSUSE 16 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2026:21602-1 advisory.

Changes in python-pytest-html:

- Revendor browserslist to fix the following:
* CVE-2026-73088: unguarded for...in loop over untrusted JSON keys in normalizeStats() function leads to prototype pollution and uncaught exceptions (bsc#1275374)

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