systeminformation is a System and OS information library for node.js. In affected versions SSIDs are not sanitized when before they are passed as a parameter to cmd.exe in the `getWindowsIEEE8021x` function. This means that malicious content in the SSID can be executed as OS commands. This vulnerability may enable an attacker, depending on how the package is used, to perform remote code execution or local privilege escalation. This issue has been addressed in version 5.23.7 and all users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - systeminformation is a System and OS information library for node.js. In affected versions SSIDs are not     sanitized when before they are passed as a parameter to cmd.exe in the `getWindowsIEEE8021x` function.
    This means that malicious content in the SSID can be executed as OS commands. This vulnerability may     enable an attacker, depending on how the package is used, to perform remote code execution or local     privilege escalation. This issue has been addressed in version 5.23.7 and all users are advised to     upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability. (CVE-2024-56334)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The version of IBM Spectrum Protect Plus Web UI installed on the remote host is prior to 10.1.17.1 IBM Spectrum Protect Plus. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 7237702 advisory.

  - Jinja is an extensible templating engine. Prior to 3.1.6, an oversight in how the Jinja sandboxed     environment interacts with the |attr filter allows an attacker that controls the content of a template to     execute arbitrary Python code. To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker needs to control the content of a     template. Whether that is the case depends on the type of application using Jinja. This vulnerability     impacts users of applications which execute untrusted templates. Jinja's sandbox does catch calls to     str.format and ensures they don't escape the sandbox. However, it's possible to use the |attr filter to     get a reference to a string's plain format method, bypassing the sandbox. After the fix, the |attr filter     no longer bypasses the environment's attribute lookup. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.1.6.
    (CVE-2025-27516)

  - This affects the package node-notifier before 9.0.0. It allows an attacker to run arbitrary commands on     Linux machines due to the options params not being sanitised when being passed an array. (CVE-2020-7789)

  - Requests is a HTTP library. Since Requests 2.3.0, Requests has been leaking Proxy-Authorization headers to     destination servers when redirected to an HTTPS endpoint. This is a product of how we use     `rebuild_proxies` to reattach the `Proxy-Authorization` header to requests. For HTTP connections sent     through the tunnel, the proxy will identify the header in the request itself and remove it prior to     forwarding to the destination server. However when sent over HTTPS, the `Proxy-Authorization` header must     be sent in the CONNECT request as the proxy has no visibility into the tunneled request. This results in     Requests forwarding proxy credentials to the destination server unintentionally, allowing a malicious     actor to potentially exfiltrate sensitive information. This issue has been patched in version 2.31.0.
    (CVE-2023-32681)

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