Synopsis

The instance of JetBrains TeamCity installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of JetBrains TeamCity installed on the remote host is prior to 2020.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- In JetBrains TeamCity before 2020.1, users are able to assign more permissions than they have.
(CVE-2020-15826)

- In JetBrains TeamCity before 2020.1, users with the Modify Group permission can elevate other users' privileges. (CVE-2020-15825)

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