Synopsis

The Microsoft Azure CLI installation on the remote host is missing a security update.

Description

The Microsoft Azure CLI installation on the remote host is missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by an elevation of privilege vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this to gain elevated privileges.

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

Solution

Update the Azure CLI to version 2.69.0 or later.
