The version of AHV installed on the remote host is prior to 10.3. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AHV-10.3 advisory.

  - libxml2 before 2.12.10 and 2.13.x before 2.13.6 has a use-after-free in xmlSchemaIDCFillNodeTables and     xmlSchemaBubbleIDCNodeTables in xmlschemas.c. To exploit this, a crafted XML document must be validated     against an XML schema with certain identity constraints, or a crafted XML schema must be used.
    (CVE-2024-56171)

  - In jQuery versions greater than or equal to 1.0.3 and before 3.5.0, passing HTML containing <option>     elements from untrusted sources - even after sanitizing it - to one of jQuery's DOM manipulation methods     (i.e. .html(), .append(), and others) may execute untrusted code. This problem is patched in jQuery 3.5.0.
    (CVE-2020-11023)

  - xsltGetInheritedNsList in libxslt before 1.1.43 has a use-after-free issue related to exclusion of result     prefixes. (CVE-2024-55549)

  - numbers.c in libxslt before 1.1.43 has a use-after-free because, in nested XPath evaluations, an XPath     context node can be modified but never restored. This is related to xsltNumberFormatGetValue,     xsltEvalXPathPredicate, xsltEvalXPathStringNs, and xsltComputeSortResultInternal. (CVE-2025-24855)

  - Flatpak is a Linux application sandboxing and distribution framework. Prior to versions 1.14.0 and     1.15.10, a malicious or compromised Flatpak app using persistent directories could access and write files     outside of what it would otherwise have access to, which is an attack on integrity and confidentiality.
    When `persistent=subdir` is used in the application permissions (represented as `--persist=subdir` in the     command-line interface), that means that an application which otherwise doesn't have access to the real     user home directory will see an empty home directory with a writeable subdirectory `subdir`. Behind the     scenes, this directory is actually a bind mount and the data is stored in the per-application directory as     `~/.var/app/$APPID/subdir`. This allows existing apps that are not aware of the per-application directory     to still work as intended without general home directory access. However, the application does have write     access to the application directory `~/.var/app/$APPID` where this directory is stored. If the source     directory for the `persistent`/`--persist` option is replaced by a symlink, then the next time the     application is started, the bind mount will follow the symlink and mount whatever it points to into the     sandbox. Partial protection against this vulnerability can be provided by patching Flatpak using the     patches in commits ceec2ffc and 98f79773. However, this leaves a race condition that could be exploited by     two instances of a malicious app running in parallel. Closing the race condition requires updating or     patching the version of bubblewrap that is used by Flatpak to add the new `--bind-fd` option using the     patch and then patching Flatpak to use it. If Flatpak has been configured at build-time with     `-Dsystem_bubblewrap=bwrap` (1.15.x) or `--with-system-bubblewrap=bwrap` (1.14.x or older), or a similar     option, then the version of bubblewrap that needs to be patched is a system copy that is distributed     separately, typically `/usr/bin/bwrap`. This configuration is the one that is typically used in Linux     distributions. If Flatpak has been configured at build-time with `-Dsystem_bubblewrap=` (1.15.x) or with     `--without-system-bubblewrap` (1.14.x or older), then it is the bundled version of bubblewrap that is     included with Flatpak that must be patched. This is typically installed as `/usr/libexec/flatpak-bwrap`.
    This configuration is the default when building from source code. For the 1.14.x stable branch, these     changes are included in Flatpak 1.14.10. The bundled version of bubblewrap included in this release has     been updated to 0.6.3. For the 1.15.x development branch, these changes are included in Flatpak 1.15.10.
    The bundled version of bubblewrap in this release is a Meson wrap subproject, which has been updated to     0.10.0. The 1.12.x and 1.10.x branches will not be updated for this vulnerability. Long-term support OS     distributions should backport the individual changes into their versions of Flatpak and bubblewrap, or     update to newer versions if their stability policy allows it. As a workaround, avoid using applications     using the `persistent` (`--persist`) permission. (CVE-2024-42472)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in libxml2, a library providing     support to read, modify and write XML and HTML files. These     vulnerabilities could potentially lead to denial of servie or other     unintended behaviors.

    CVE-2022-49043

        xmlXIncludeAddNode in xinclude.c in libxml2 before 2.11.0 has a         use-after-free.

    CVE-2023-39615

        libxml2 v2.11.0 was discovered to contain an out-of-bounds read via         the xmlSAX2StartElement() function at /libxml2/SAX2.c. This         vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS)         via supplying a crafted XML file. NOTE: the vendor's position is         that the product does not support the legacy SAX1 interface with         custom callbacks; there is a crash even without crafted input.

    CVE-2023-45322

        libxml2 through 2.11.5 has a use-after-free that can only occur         after a certain memory allocation fails. This occurs in         xmlUnlinkNode in tree.c. NOTE: the vendor's position is I don't         think these issues are critical enough to warrant a CVE ID ...
        because an attacker typically can't control when memory allocations         fail.

    CVE-2024-25062

        An issue was discovered in libxml2 before 2.11.7 and 2.12.x before         2.12.5. When using the XML Reader interface with DTD validation and         XInclude expansion enabled, processing crafted XML documents can         lead to an xmlValidatePopElement use-after-free.

    CVE-2024-56171

        libxml2 before 2.12.10 and 2.13.x before 2.13.6 has a use-after-free         in xmlSchemaIDCFillNodeTables and xmlSchemaBubbleIDCNodeTables in         xmlschemas.c. To exploit this, a crafted XML document must be         validated against an XML schema with certain identity constraints,         or a crafted XML schema must be used.

    CVE-2025-24928

        libxml2 before 2.12.10 and 2.13.x before 2.13.6 has a stack-based         buffer overflow in xmlSnprintfElements in valid.c. To exploit this,         DTD validation must occur for an untrusted document or untrusted         DTD. NOTE: this is similar to CVE-2017-9047.

    CVE-2025-27113

        libxml2 before 2.12.10 and 2.13.x before 2.13.6 has a NULL pointer         dereference in xmlPatMatch in pattern.c.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version     2.9.10+dfsg-6.7+deb11u6.

    We recommend that you upgrade your libxml2 packages.
