Synopsis

The remote web server contains an application that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Adobe Connect running on the remote host is 11.2.2 or earlier. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

- Violation of secure design principles, resulting on a security feature bypass. (CVE-2021-36061)

- Cross-site Scripting (reflected XSS), resulting on an arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2021-36062, CVE-2021-36063)

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