CVE-2023-6062 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2023-11-29 N/A 6.5 MEDIUM
An arbitrary file write vulnerability exists where an authenticated, remote attacker with administrator privileges on the Nessus application could alter Nessus Rules variables to overwrite arbitrary files on the remote host, which could lead to a denial of service condition.
CVE-2023-6178 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2023-11-29 N/A 6.5 MEDIUM
An arbitrary file write vulnerability exists where an authenticated attacker with privileges on the managing application could alter Nessus Rules variables to overwrite arbitrary files on the remote host, which could lead to a denial of service condition.
CVE-2022-33757 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2023-08-08 N/A 6.5 MEDIUM
An authenticated attacker could read Nessus Debug Log file attachments from the web UI without having the correct privileges to do so. This may lead to the disclosure of information on the scan target and/or the Nessus scan to unauthorized parties able to reach the Nessus instance.
CVE-2021-3449 11 Checkpoint, Debian, Fedoraproject and 8 more 163 Multi-domain Management, Multi-domain Management Firmware, Quantum Security Gateway and 160 more 2022-07-25 4.3 MEDIUM 5.9 MEDIUM
An OpenSSL TLS server may crash if sent a maliciously crafted renegotiation ClientHello message from a client. If a TLSv1.2 renegotiation ClientHello omits the signature_algorithms extension (where it was present in the initial ClientHello), but includes a signature_algorithms_cert extension then a NULL pointer dereference will result, leading to a crash and a denial of service attack. A server is only vulnerable if it has TLSv1.2 and renegotiation enabled (which is the default configuration). OpenSSL TLS clients are not impacted by this issue. All OpenSSL 1.1.1 versions are affected by this issue. Users of these versions should upgrade to OpenSSL 1.1.1k. OpenSSL 1.0.2 is not impacted by this issue. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1k (Affected 1.1.1-1.1.1j).
CVE-2021-20135 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2022-07-12 4.6 MEDIUM 6.7 MEDIUM
Nessus versions 8.15.2 and earlier were found to contain a local privilege escalation vulnerability which could allow an authenticated, local administrator to run specific executables on the Nessus Agent host.

Nessus Agent 8.2.4 and earlier for Windows were found to contain multiple local privilege escalation vulnerabilities which could allow an authenticated, local administrator to run specific Windows executables as the Nessus host. This is different than CVE-2021-20099.
CVE-2021-20106 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2022-07-12 8.5 HIGH 6.5 MEDIUM

CVE-2022-32974 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2022-06-28 4.0 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
An authenticated attacker could read arbitrary files from the underlying operating system of the scanner using a custom crafted compliance audit file without providing any valid SSH credentials.
CVE-2016-4055 3 Momentjs, Oracle, Tenable 3 Moment, Primavera Unifier, Nessus 2022-06-06 7.8 HIGH 6.5 MEDIUM
The duration function in the moment package before 2.11.2 for Node.js allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a long string, aka a "regular expression Denial of Service (ReDoS)."
CVE-2019-1559 7 Canonical, Debian, F5 and 4 more 18 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Traffix Signaling Delivery Controller and 15 more 2021-01-20 4.3 MEDIUM 5.9 MEDIUM
If an application encounters a fatal protocol error and then calls SSL_shutdown() twice (once to send a close_notify, and once to receive one) then OpenSSL can respond differently to the calling application if a 0 byte record is received with invalid padding compared to if a 0 byte record is received with an invalid MAC. If the application then behaves differently based on that in a way that is detectable to the remote peer, then this amounts to a padding oracle that could be used to decrypt data. In order for this to be exploitable "non-stitched" ciphersuites must be in use. Stitched ciphersuites are optimised implementations of certain commonly used ciphersuites. Also the application must call SSL_shutdown() twice even if a protocol error has occurred (applications should not do this but some do anyway). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2r (Affected 1.0.2-1.0.2q).
CVE-2018-5407 7 Canonical, Debian, Nodejs and 4 more 20 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Node.js and 17 more 2020-09-18 1.9 LOW 4.7 MEDIUM
Simultaneous Multi-threading (SMT) in processors can enable local users to exploit software vulnerable to timing attacks via a side-channel timing attack on 'port contention'.
CVE-2020-5765 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2020-07-20 3.5 LOW 5.4 MEDIUM
Nessus 8.10.0 and earlier were found to contain a Stored XSS vulnerability due to improper validation of input during scan configuration.
