New! Vulnerability Priority Rating (VPR)
Tenable calculates a dynamic VPR for every vulnerability. VPR combines vulnerability information with threat intelligence and machine learning algorithms to predict which vulnerabilities are most likely to be exploited in attacks. Read more about what VPR is and how it's different from CVSS.
VPR Score: 5.9
Synopsis
The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.
Description
Nicholas Gregoire and Cris Neckar discovered several memory handling bugs in libxslt, which could lead to denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code if a malformed document is processed.
Solution
Upgrade the libxslt packages.
For the stable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in version 1.1.26-6+squeeze2.
