The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202401-11 (Apache Batik: Multiple Vulnerabilities)

  - In Apache Batik 1.x before 1.10, when deserializing subclass of `AbstractDocument`, the class takes a     string from the inputStream as the class name which then use it to call the no-arg constructor of the     class. Fix was to check the class type before calling newInstance in deserialization. (CVE-2018-8013)

  - Apache Batik is vulnerable to server-side request forgery, caused by improper input validation by the     xlink:href attributes.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES12 / SLES_SAP12 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2024:0777-1 advisory.

  - In Apache Batik before 1.9, files lying on the filesystem of the server which uses batik can be revealed     to arbitrary users who send maliciously formed SVG files. The file types that can be shown depend on the     user context in which the exploitable application is running. If the user is root a full compromise of the     server - including confidential or sensitive files - would be possible. XXE can also be used to attack the     availability of the server via denial of service as the references within a xml document can trivially     trigger an amplification attack. (CVE-2017-5662)
