Synopsis

An infrastructure management application running on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

According to its self-reported version, the IBM BigFix Platform application running on the remote host is 9.2.x prior to 9.2.15, or 9.5.x prior to 9.5.10. It is, therefore, affected by an information disclosure vulnerability in internet-facing relays if they are configured as non-authenticating. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could exploit this to disclose potentially sensitive information.

IBM BigFix Platform was formerly known as Tivoli Endpoint Manager, IBM Endpoint Manager, and IBM BigFix Endpoint Manager.

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

Solution

Refer to vendor advisory (IBM Security Bulletin 870242) for suggested workaround, or upgrade to an unaffected version.
