How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:10 jbcs-httpd24-httpd.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream jbcs-httpd24-httpd package and not the jbcs-httpd24-httpd package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

libxml2 2.9.4 and earlier, as used in XMLSec 1.2.23 and earlier and other products, does not offer a flag directly indicating that the current document may be read but other files may not be opened, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct XML External Entity (XXE) attacks via a crafted document.
