Trivy's own label is CRITICAL. Rated critical by NVD, GHSA, Julia, Photon OS, Ruby Advisory DB. Rated lower by Red Hat (medium), Amazon (medium), Oracle (medium), Ubuntu (medium).

Description

libxslt through 1.1.33 allows bypass of a protection mechanism because callers of xsltCheckRead and xsltCheckWrite permit access even upon receiving a -1 error code. xsltCheckRead can return -1 for a crafted URL that is not actually invalid and is subsequently loaded.
