The remote host contains an application that is affected by multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities.

Description

According to its version, the installation of Tenable SecurityCenter on the remote host is affected by multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities :

 - A flaw exists due to improper sanitization of user-supplied files during upload functions. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by uploading a dashboard for another user, to execute arbitrary code when the server processes the file.

 - A flaw exists due to improper sanitization of user-supplied files during upload functions. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by uploading a custom plugin or custom passive plugin with a specially crafted archive file name, to execute arbitrary code when the server processes the file.

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