medium Nessus Plugin ID 200260

Synopsis

An instance of Security Center installed on the remote system is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

According to its self-reported version, the Tenable Security Center running on the remote host is prior to 6.4.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TNS-2024-10 advisory.

 - Security Center leverages third-party software to help provide underlying functionality. Several of the third-party components (Apache, PHP) were found to contain vulnerabilities, and updated versions have been made available by the providers.Out of caution and in line with best practice, Tenable has opted to upgrade these components to address the potential impact of the issues. Security Center 6.4.0 updates Apache to version 2.4.59 and PHP to version 8.2.13 to address the identified vulnerabilities.Additionally, two separate vulnerabilities were discovered, reported and fixed:A stored cross site scripting vulnerability exists in Tenable Security Center where an authenticated, remote attacker could inject HTML code into a web application scan result page. - CVE-2024-1891An improper privilege management vulnerability exists in Tenable Security Center where an authenticated, remote attacker could view unauthorized objects and launch scans without having the required privileges. - CVE-2024-5759 Tenable has released Security Center 6.4.0 to address these issues. The installation files can be obtained from the Tenable Downloads Portal: https://www.tenable.com/downloads/security-center (CVE-2023-38709, CVE-2024-1874, CVE-2024-1891, CVE-2024-24795, CVE-2024-27316, CVE-2024-3096, CVE-2024-5759)
