Synopsis

The remote host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of GitHub Enterprise installed on the remote host is prior to 3.11.14, 3.12.8, or 3.13.3. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ghsa_w49g_9f3f_c384 advisory.

 - An Incorrect Authorization vulnerability was identified in GitHub Enterprise Server, allowing an attacker to update the title, assignees, and labels of any issue inside a public repository. This was only exploitable inside a public repository. This vulnerability affected GitHub Enterprise Server versions before 3.14 and was fixed in versions 3.13.3, 3.12.8, and 3.11.14. Versions 3.10 of GitHub Enterprise Server are not affected. This vulnerability was reported via the GitHub Bug Bounty program.
 (CVE-2024-7711)

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