The Microsoft SharePoint Server 2016 installation on the remote host is missing security updates. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  • A session spoofing vulnerability exists. An attacker can exploit this to perform actions with the privileges of another user. (CVE-2021-40484)

  • A remote code execution vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this to bypass authentication and execute unauthorized arbitrary commands. (CVE-2021-40486, CVE-2021-40487, CVE-2021-41344) Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
