Products.PluggableAuthService is a pluggable Zope authentication and authorization framework. In Products.PluggableAuthService before version 2.6.0 there is an information disclosure vulnerability - everyone can list the names of roles defined in the ZODB Role Manager plugin if the site uses this plugin. The problem has been fixed in version 2.6.0. Depending on how you have installed Products.PluggableAuthService, you should change the buildout version pin to 2.6.0 and re-run the buildout, or if you used pip simply do `pip install "Products.PluggableAuthService>=2.6.0"`.

The version of Plone installed on the remote host is 4.3.x prior to 5.2.5. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities:

  - Plone CMS has a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the user fullname property and the file     upload functionality. (CVE-2021-3313)

  - Products.PluggableAuthService within Zope has an information disclosure vulnerability - everyone can list the names of     roles defined in the ZODB Role Manager plugin if the site uses this plugin. (CVE-2021-21336)

  - Products.GenericSetup within Zope has an information disclosure vulnerability - anonymous visitors may     view log and snapshot files generated by the Generic Setup Tool. (CVE-2021-21360)

  - Zope has a remote code execution vulnerability via a traversal in the TAL expressions. (CVE-2021-32633,     CVE-2021-32674)

  - The AccessControl module within Zope has a remote code execution via the use of unsafe classes in     permitted modules. (CVE-2021-32807)

  - Zope Products.CMFCore and Products.PluggableAuthService, as used in Plone and other products, allow     Reflected XSS. (CVE-2021-33507)

  - Plone allows XSS via a full name that is mishandled during rendering of the ownership tab of a content     item. (CVE-2021-33508)

  - Plone allows remote authenticated managers to perform disk I/O via crafted keyword arguments to the     ReStructuredText transform in a Python script. (CVE-2021-33509)

  - Plone allows remote authenticated managers to conduct SSRF attacks via an event ical URL, to read one line     of a file. (CVE-2021-33510)

  - Plone allows SSRF via the lxml parser. (CVE-2021-33511)

  - Plone allows stored XSS attacks (by a Contributor) by uploading an SVG or HTML document. (CVE-2021-33512)

  - Plone allows XSS via the inline_diff methods in Products.CMFDiffTool. (CVE-2021-33513)

  - An issue in Plone CMS allows an attacker to access sensitive information via the RSS feed portlet.
    (CVE-2021-33926)

  - In Plone, Editors are vulnerable to XSS in the folder contents view, if a Contributor has created a folder with a SCRIPT tag     in the description field (CVE-2021-35959)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number. Since a vendor hotfix (PloneHotfix20210518) may remediate this without a version upgrade, this plugin only reports when running in Paranoid mode.
