Progress WhatsUp Gold < 24.0.0 Multiple Vulnerabilities (000263015)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 206233

Synopsis

The remote host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of Progress WhatsUp Gold installed on the remote host is prior to 24.0.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 000263015 advisory:

- In WhatsUp Gold versions released before 2024.0.0, if the application is configured with only a single user, a SQL Injection vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker to retrieve the users encrypted password.
(CVE-2024-6670)

- In WhatsUp Gold versions released before 2024.0.0, if the application is configured with only a single user, a SQL Injection vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker to retrieve the users encrypted password.
(CVE-2024-6671)

- In WhatsUp Gold versions released before 2024.0.0, a SQL Injection vulnerability allows an authenticated low-privileged attacker to achieve privilege escalation by modifying a privileged user's password. (CVE-2024-6672)

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

Solution

Update to Progress WhatsUp Gold version 24.0.0 or later.
