SCA: security update for DotNetNuke.Core (GHSA-jc4g-c8ww-5738)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 435403

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - DNN (formerly DotNetNuke) is an open-source web content management platform (CMS) in the Microsoft
 ecosystem. Prior to version 10.1.0, DNN’s URL/path handling and template rendering can allow specially
 crafted input to be reflected into a user profile that is returned to the browser. In these cases, the
 application does not sufficiently neutralize or encode characters that are meaningful in HTML, so an
 attacker can cause a victim’s browser to interpret attacker-controlled content as part of the page’s HTML.
 This issue has been patched in version 10.1.0. (CVE-2025-59821)
