The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2021:3873-1 advisory.

  - An issue was discovered in ezXML 0.8.3 through 0.8.6. The function ezxml_decode, while parsing a crafted     XML file, performs incorrect memory handling, leading to a heap-based buffer over-read while running     strchr() starting with a pointer after a '\0' character (where the processing of a string was finished).
    (CVE-2019-20005)

  - An issue was discovered in ezXML 0.8.3 through 0.8.6. The function ezxml_char_content puts a pointer to     the internal address of a larger block as xml->txt. This is later deallocated (using free), leading to a     segmentation fault. (CVE-2019-20006)

  - An issue was discovered in ezXML 0.8.2 through 0.8.6. The function ezxml_str2utf8, while parsing a crafted     XML file, performs zero-length reallocation in ezxml.c, leading to returning a NULL pointer (in some     compilers). After this, the function ezxml_parse_str does not check whether the s variable is not NULL in     ezxml.c, leading to a NULL pointer dereference and crash (segmentation fault). (CVE-2019-20007)

  - An issue was discovered in ezXML 0.8.3 through 0.8.6. The function ezxml_ent_ok() mishandles recursion,     leading to stack consumption for a crafted XML file. (CVE-2019-20198)

  - An issue was discovered in ezXML 0.8.3 through 0.8.6. The function ezxml_decode, while parsing a crafted     XML file, performs incorrect memory handling, leading to NULL pointer dereference while running strlen()     on a NULL pointer. (CVE-2019-20199)

  - An issue was discovered in ezXML 0.8.3 through 0.8.6. The function ezxml_decode, while parsing crafted a     XML file, performs incorrect memory handling, leading to a heap-based buffer over-read in the normalize     line endings feature. (CVE-2019-20200)

  - An issue was discovered in ezXML 0.8.3 through 0.8.6. The ezxml_parse_* functions mishandle XML entities,     leading to an infinite loop in which memory allocations occur. (CVE-2019-20201)

  - An issue was discovered in ezXML 0.8.3 through 0.8.6. The function ezxml_char_content() tries to use     realloc on a block that was not allocated, leading to an invalid free and segmentation fault.
    (CVE-2019-20202)

  - The ezxml_toxml function in ezxml 0.8.6 and earlier is vulnerable to OOB write when opening XML file after     exhausting the memory pool. (CVE-2021-26220)

  - The ezxml_new function in ezXML 0.8.6 and earlier is vulnerable to OOB write when opening XML file after     exhausting the memory pool. (CVE-2021-26221, CVE-2021-26222)

  - An issue was discovered in libezxml.a in ezXML 0.8.6. The function ezxml_internal_dtd(), while parsing a     crafted XML file, performs incorrect memory handling, leading to a NULL pointer dereference while running     strcmp() on a NULL pointer. (CVE-2021-30485)

  - An issue was discovered in libezxml.a in ezXML 0.8.6. The function ezxml_internal_dtd() performs incorrect     memory handling while parsing crafted XML files, which leads to an out-of-bounds write of a one byte     constant. (CVE-2021-31229)

  - An issue was discovered in libezxml.a in ezXML 0.8.6. The function ezxml_parse_str() performs incorrect     memory handling while parsing crafted XML files (writing outside a memory region created by mmap).
    (CVE-2021-31347)

  - An issue was discovered in libezxml.a in ezXML 0.8.6. The function ezxml_parse_str() performs incorrect     memory handling while parsing crafted XML files (out-of-bounds read after a certain strcspn failure).
    (CVE-2021-31348)

  - An issue was discovered in libezxml.a in ezXML 0.8.6. The function ezxml_decode() performs incorrect     memory handling while parsing crafted XML files, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow. (CVE-2021-31598)

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