Description

Hi there,

I just thought to give you a heads up that third-party is shipped at least with two vulnerable packages, i.e. libxml2 and ModSecurity 3.0.13

Please refer to
https://github.com/owasp-modsecurity/ModSecurity/releases
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/releases

Any recommendation on how to update the build for libxml2 and ModSecurity scripts?

With thanks.

Zak.
