"According to the versions of the libxslt packages installed, the
EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following
vulnerabilities :

  - The xsltStylePreCompute function in preproc.c in
    libxslt 1.1.28 does not check if the parent node is an
    element, which allows attackers to cause a denial of
    service via a crafted XML file, related to a 'type
    confusion' issue.(CVE-2015-7995)

  - numbers.c in libxslt before 1.1.29, as used in Google
    Chrome before 51.0.2704.63, mishandles namespace nodes,
    which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
    service (out-of-bounds heap memory access) or possibly
    have unspecified other impact via a crafted
    document.(CVE-2016-1683)

  - numbers.c in libxslt before 1.1.29, as used in Google
    Chrome before 51.0.2704.63, mishandles the i format
    token for xsl:number data, which allows remote
    attackers to cause a denial of service (integer
    overflow or resource consumption) or possibly have
    unspecified other impact via a crafted
    document.(CVE-2016-1684)

  - libxslt in Apple iOS before 9.3.3, OS X before 10.11.6,
    iTunes before 12.4.2 on Windows, iCloud before 5.2.1 on
    Windows, tvOS before 9.2.2, and watchOS before 2.2.2
    allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
    (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other
    impact via unknown vectors, a different vulnerability
    than CVE-2016-4608, CVE-2016-4609, CVE-2016-4610, and
    CVE-2016-4612.(CVE-2016-4607)

    iTunes before 12.4.2 on Windows, iCloud before 5.2.1 on
    Windows, tvOS before 9.2.2, and watchOS before 2.2.2

    CVE-2016-4612.(CVE-2016-4610)

  - In xsltCopyText in transform.c in libxslt 1.1.33, a
    pointer variable isn't reset under certain
    circumstances. If the relevant memory area happened to
    be freed and reused in a certain way, a bounds check
    could fail and memory outside a buffer could be written
    to, or uninitialized data could be
    disclosed.(CVE-2019-18197)
