critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 436173

Description

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

 - GeoServer is an open source server that allows users to share and edit geospatial data. From version
 2.26.0 to before 2.26.2 and before 2.25.6, an XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability was identified. The
 application accepts XML input through a specific endpoint /geoserver/wms operation GetMap. However, this
 input is not sufficiently sanitized or restricted, allowing an attacker to define external entities within
 the XML request. This issue has been patched in GeoServer 2.25.6, GeoServer 2.26.3, and GeoServer 2.27.0.
