Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Versions of cURL and libcurl prior to 7.49.1 are affected by a flaw that is triggered when loading certain dynamic-link libraries including 'security.dll', 'secur32.dll', and 'ws2_32.dll'. The program uses an insecure path to look for specific files or libraries that includes the current working directory, which may not be trusted or under user control. By placing a specially crafted library in the path and tricking a user into opening a FILETYPE file located on a remote WebDAV share, a context-dependent attacker can inject and execute arbitrary code with the privilege of the user running the program.

According to its self-reported version, the Tenable SecurityCenter application installed on the remote host is prior to 5.4.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - An arbitrary code execution vulnerability exists in the     bundled version of libcurl due to using an insecure path     to look for specific libraries, including the current     working directory, which may not be under user control.
    A remote attacker can exploit this to inject and execute     arbitrary code in the context of the current user.
    (CVE-2016-4802)

  - Multiple flaws exist in the bundled version of libssh     due to a failure to securely generate Diffie-Hellman     secret keys. A man-in-the-middle attacker can exploit     these flaws to intercept and decrypt SSH sessions.
    (CVE-2016-0739, CVE-2016-0787)

  - An integer overflow condition exists in the bundled     version of libcurl due to improper validation of     user-supplied input when handling 'timeval'. An attacker     can exploit this to have an unspecified impact.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

cURL / libcurl contains a flaw that is triggered when loading certain dynamic-link libraries incl. security.dll, secur32.dll, and ws2_32.dll. The program uses an insecure path to look for specific files or libraries that includes the current working directory, which may not be trusted or under user control. By placing a specially crafted library in the path and tricking a user into opening a FILETYPE file e.g. located on a remote WebDAV share, a context-dependent attacker can inject and execute arbitrary code with the privilege of the user running the program.
Technical Information: Note: Library vulnerability. This code is used in a wide variety of software and the issue may manifest in a number of different ways. Depending on the implementation, it will vary if this vulnerability requires local access, or if it may be exploited remotely.

This issue only affects the Windows platform.
