Amazon Linux 2023 : librsvg2, librsvg2-devel, librsvg2-tools (ALAS2023-2026-3392)

high Nessus Plugin ID 377955

Synopsis

The remote Amazon Linux 2023 host is missing a security update.

Description

It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2023-2026-3392 advisory.

 A flaw was found in librsvg. When processing an SVG document containing nested XML inclusions (Xincludes) with duplicate entity declarations, a use-after-free error can occur. This vulnerability arises because the library incorrectly frees an XML entity that is still in use by the parser. An attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-96889)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product 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

Run 'dnf update librsvg2 --releasever 2023.12.20261109' or or 'dnf update --advisory ALAS2023-2026-3392 --releasever 2023.12.20261109' to update your system.
