Descriptions

Tenable Nessus before 6.10.2 (as used alone or in Tenable Appliance before 4.5.0) was found to contain a flaw that allowed a remote, authenticated attacker to upload a crafted file that could be written to anywhere on the system. This could be used to subsequently gain elevated privileges on the system (e.g., after a reboot). This issue only affects installations on Windows.

Tenable Nessus en versiones anteriores a 6.10.2 (tal como se utiliza sólo o en Tenable Appliance en versiones anteriores a 4.5.0) se encontró que contenía un fallo que permitía a un atacante remoto autenticado cargar un archivo manipulado que podía ser escrito en cualquier parte del sistema. Esto podría ser utilizado para obtener posteriormente privilegios elevados en el sistema (por ejemplo, después de un reinicio). Este problema solo afecta a instalaciones de Windows.
