medium Nessus Plugin ID 93051

Synopsis

A log management application running on the remote host is affected by a directory traversal vulnerability.

Description

The VMware vRealize Log Insight application running on the remote host is 2.x or 3.x prior to 3.6.0. It is, therefore, affected by a directory traversal vulnerability due to improper sanitization of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to disclose arbitrary files.

Solution

Upgrade to VMware vRealize Log Insight version 3.6.0 or later.
