An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-0955 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-2024-0955/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-0955/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-0955","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-0955/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-0955","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6j46-c3h7-p829"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Nessus vulnerability scanner","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"An authenticated administrator can inject scripts via proxy settings, leading to arbitrary code execution in the Nessus application.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"tenable","cpe":[{"product":"nessus","vendor":"tenable"}],"cvss":{"score":4.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"},{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"A stored XSS vulnerability exists where an authenticated, remote attacker with administrator privileges on the Nessus application could alter Nessus proxy settings, which could lead to the execution of remote arbitrary scripts.","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":"Stored XSS vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-0955","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"tenable:nessus","products":["tenable:nessus"],"type":"xss","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WP ERP \u003c= 1.13.0 - Authenticated (AccountingManager+) SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2024-0956"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Essential Addons for Elementor – Popular Elementor Templates \u0026 Widgets","id":"CVE-2024-0954"},"products":["Nessus"],"published":"2024-02-06","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":"2024-08-01","vendors":["Tenable"]},"summary":"An authenticated administrator can inject scripts via proxy settings, leading to arbitrary code execution in the Nessus application.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-0955/"}
