The version of ManageEngine AssetExplorer prior to 6.9 Build 6988 is running on the remote web server. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including the following:
A privilege escalation vulnerability in query reports. This vulnerability allows an attacker to gain access to restricted data in a Postgres database system by utilizing a certain PostgreSQL function in the query, allowing the validation process to be bypassed. (CVE-2023-26600)
A Denial of Service vulnerability in image upload. This vulnerability allows an attacker to exploit the way an API method allocates memory by sending a small image file with a large size defined in the header, causing the application to crash or become unresponsive. (CVE-2023-26601)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
