Netwrix Auditor < 10.5 Insecure Object Deserialization

critical Nessus Plugin ID 178718

Language:

Synopsis

An application installed on the remote Windows host is affected by an insecure object deserialization vulnerability.

Description

The version of Netwrix Auditor installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 10.5. It is, therefore, affected by an insecure object deserialization vulnerability:

 - Netwrix Auditor is vulnerable to an insecure object deserialization issue that is caused by an unsecured .NET remoting service. An attacker can submit arbitrary objects to the application through this service to achieve remote code execution on Netwrix Auditor servers. (CVE-2022-31199)

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 Netwrix Auditor version 10.5 or later.
