medium Nessus Plugin ID 83954

Synopsis

The remote host has an agent installed that is affected by a clickjacking vulnerability.

Description

According to its self-reported version number, the remote host has a version of McAfee Agent (MA) installed that is 4.6.x prior to 4.8.0.1938 or 5.0.x prior to 5.0.1. It is, therefore, affected by a clickjacking vulnerability in the log viewing feature due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted web page, to compromise the application or obtain sensitive information.

Solution

Upgrade to McAfee Agent 4.8.0 Patch 3 (4.8.0.1938) or 5.0.1 per the vendor advisory.

As a workaround, it is possible to partially mitigate the vulnerability by adjusting the Agent policy to only allow connections from the ePO server.
