Tenable Nessus

A SQL injection vulnerability in Nessus allows an attacker to craft a malicious scan result file that, when imported by a privileged user, injects malicious SQL into the scan results database, potentially enabling exfiltration of scan-result data.

A SQL injection vulnerability in Nessus allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker who controls reverse DNS records for a scanned host to inject malicious SQL into the scan results database, potentially enabling exfiltration of scan-result data.

In Tenable Nessus versions prior to 10.8.5 on a Windows host, it was found that a non-administrative user could overwrite arbitrary local system files with log content at SYSTEM privilege.

A SQL injection vulnerability exists where an authenticated, low-privileged remote attacker could potentially alter scan DB content.

A stored XSS vulnerability exists where an authenticated, remote attacker with administrator privileges on the Nessus application could alter Nessus proxy settings, which could lead to the execution of remote arbitrary scripts.

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.

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.

Under certain conditions, a low privileged attacker could load a specially crafted file during installation or upgrade to escalate privileges on Windows and Linux hosts.
