Tenable.ad < 3.77.12 Multiple Vulnerabilities (TNS-2025-14)

high Nessus Plugin ID 243057

Language:

Synopsis

The remote host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of Tenable.ad installed on the remote host is prior to 3.77.12. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TNS-2025-14 advisory.

 - Due to a mistake in libcurl's WebSocket code, a malicious server can send a particularly crafted packet which makes libcurl get trapped in an endless busy-loop. There is no other way for the application to escape or exit this loop other than killing the thread/process. (CVE-2025-5399)

- Untrusted search path in .NET and Visual Studio allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network. (CVE-2025-30399)

 - libcurl accidentally skips the certificate verification for QUIC connections when connecting to a host specified as an IP address in the URL. Therefore, it does not detect impostors or man-in-the-middle attacks. (CVE-2025-4947)

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

Solution

Upgrade Tenable.ad based upon the guidance specified in TNS-2025-14.
