The version of Intel VTune Profiler installed on the remote host is prior to 2024.1. It is, therefore, affected by a privilege escalation vulnerability.
Uncontrolled search path in some Intel® VTune™ Profiler software before versions 2024.1 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. (CVE-2024-29015)
Uncontrolled search path in some EMON software before version 11.44 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. (CVE-2024-28953)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
