Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-3499 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Tenable Nessus. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-3499/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-3499/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-3499","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-3499/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-3499","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gmj6-42q6-cwrf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Vulnerability Scanner","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated attacker can exploit shared linking keys to access unauthorized agent logs and data in Tenable Nessus.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"tenable","cpe":[{"product":"nessus","vendor":"tenable"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-532","name":"Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File"}],"description":"An authenticated attacker could utilize the identical agent and cluster node linking keys to potentially allow for a scenario where unauthorized disclosure of agent logs and data is present.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Information disclosure in Tenable Nessus","id":"CVE-2022-3499","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"tenable:nessus","products":["tenable:nessus"],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Keylime: unhandled exceptions could lead to invalid attestation states","id":"CVE-2022-3500"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SourceCodester Human Resource Management System Master List cross site scripting","id":"CVE-2022-3497"},"products":["Tenable Nessus"],"published":"2022-10-31","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Command injection in Tenable.io, Tenable.sc and Nessus","id":"CVE-2022-4313","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-15"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Tenable.io, Tenable.sc, Nessus","id":"CVE-2023-0524","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-01"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Nessus","id":"CVE-2023-0101","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-01-20"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Nessus","id":"CVE-2022-32973","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-06-21"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Local Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2025-36630","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-01"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Path traversal in Tenable Nessus","id":"CVE-2019-3974","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-15"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Path traversal in Tenable Nessus for Windows and Tenable Nessus Agent for Windows","id":"CVE-2020-5793","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-11-05"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-05-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An authenticated attacker can exploit shared linking keys to access unauthorized agent logs and data in Tenable Nessus.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-3499/"}
