critical Nessus Plugin ID 104572

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server contains an application that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Adobe Connect installed on the remote host is prior to 9.7.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the apsb17-35 advisory.

 - An issue was discovered in Adobe Connect 9.6.2 and earlier versions. A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability exists that could be abused to bypass network access controls. (CVE-2017-11291)

 - An issue was discovered in Adobe Connect 9.6.2 and earlier versions. A reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability exists that can result in information disclosure. (CVE-2017-11287, CVE-2017-11288, CVE-2017-11289)

 - An issue was discovered in Adobe Connect 9.6.2 and earlier versions. A UI Redress (or Clickjacking) vulnerability exists. This issue has been resolved by adding a feature that enables Connect administrators to protect users from UI redressing (or clickjacking) attacks. (CVE-2017-11290)

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

Solution

Upgrade to Adobe Connect version 9.7.0 or later.
