CVE-2017-6543 2 Microsoft, Tenable 3 Windows, Appliance, Nessus 2019-10-02 6.0 MEDIUM 7.3 HIGH
Tenable Nessus before 6.10.2 (as used alone or in Tenable Appliance before 4.5.0) was found to contain a flaw that allowed a remote, authenticated attacker to upload a crafted file that could be written to anywhere on the system. This could be used to subsequently gain elevated privileges on the system (e.g., after a reboot). This issue only affects installations on Windows.
CVE-2018-1141 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2019-10-02 4.4 MEDIUM 7.0 HIGH
When installing Nessus to a directory outside of the default location, Nessus versions prior to 7.0.3 did not enforce secure permissions for sub-directories. This could allow for local privilege escalation if users had not secured the directories in the installation location.
CVE-2019-3961 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2019-06-26 4.3 MEDIUM 6.1 MEDIUM
Nessus versions 8.4.0 and earlier were found to contain a reflected XSS vulnerability due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability via a specially crafted request to execute arbitrary script code in a users browser session.
CVE-2017-5179 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2019-03-18 3.5 LOW 5.4 MEDIUM
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Tenable Nessus before 6.9.3 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.
CVE-2019-3923 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2019-02-12 3.5 LOW 5.4 MEDIUM
Nessus versions 8.2.1 and earlier were found to contain a stored XSS vulnerability due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An authenticated, remote attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability via a specially crafted request to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser session. Tenable has released Nessus 8.2.2 to address this issue.
CVE-2014-4980 1 Tenable 2 Nessus, Web Ui 2018-10-09 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
The /server/properties resource in Tenable Web UI before 2.3.5 for Nessus 5.2.3 through 5.2.7 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via the token parameter.
CVE-2018-1148 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2018-06-20 4.0 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
In Nessus before 7.1.0, Session Fixation exists due to insufficient session management within the application. An authenticated attacker could maintain system access due to session fixation after a user password change.
CVE-2018-1147 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2018-06-19 3.5 LOW 5.4 MEDIUM
In Nessus before 7.1.0, a XSS vulnerability exists due to improper input validation. A remote authenticated attacker could create and upload a .nessus file, which may be viewed by an administrator allowing for the execution of arbitrary script code in a user's browser session. In other scenarios, XSS could also occur by altering variables from the Advanced Settings.
CVE-2017-11506 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2017-08-24 5.8 MEDIUM 7.4 HIGH
When linking a Nessus scanner or agent to Tenable.io or other manager, Nessus 6.x before 6.11 does not verify the manager's TLS certificate when making the initial outgoing connection. This could allow man-in-the-middle attacks.
CVE-2017-2122 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2017-05-19 3.5 LOW 5.4 MEDIUM
Cross-site scripting vulnerability in Nessus versions 6.8.0, 6.8.1, 6.9.0, 6.9.1 and 6.9.2 allows remote authenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.
CVE-2016-9259 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2017-03-01 3.5 LOW 5.4 MEDIUM
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Tenable Nessus before 6.9.1 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.
CVE-2016-9260 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2017-02-03 3.5 LOW 5.4 MEDIUM
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Tenable Nessus before 6.9 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors related to handling of .nessus files.
CVE-2014-2848 1 Tenable 2 Nessus, Plugin-set 2014-04-14 6.9 MEDIUM N/A
A race condition in the wmi_malware_scan.nbin plugin before 201402262215 for Nessus 5.2.1 allows local users to gain privileges by replacing the dissolvable agent executable in the Windows temp directory with a Trojan horse program.
