ManageEngine ADAudit Plus < Build 8606 Unauthenticated RCE

critical Nessus Plugin ID 331343

Synopsis

An Active Directory management application running on the remote host is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability.

Description

The ManageEngine ADAudit Plus running on the remote host is prior to build 8606. It is, therefore, affected by an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability:

- Zohocorp ManageEngine ADAudit Plus versions before 8606 are affected by unauthenticated remote code execution due to the vulnerable agent API. (CVE-2026-6516)

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

Solution

Upgrade to ManageEngine ADAudit Plus build 8606 or later.
