"The version of python-tensorboard installed on the remote Azure Linux 3.0 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2024-43788 advisory.
- Webpack is a module bundler. Its main purpose is to bundle JavaScript files for usage in a browser, yet it
is also capable of transforming, bundling, or packaging just about any resource or asset. The webpack
developers have discovered a DOM Clobbering vulnerability in Webpack's `AutoPublicPathRuntimeModule`. The
DOM Clobbering gadget in the module can lead to cross-site scripting (XSS) in web pages where scriptless
attacker-controlled HTML elements (e.g., an `img` tag with an unsanitized `name` attribute) are present.
Real-world exploitation of this gadget has been observed in the Canvas LMS which allows a XSS attack to
happen through a javascript code compiled by Webpack (the vulnerable part is from Webpack). DOM Clobbering
is a type of code-reuse attack where the attacker first embeds a piece of non-script, seemingly benign
HTML markups in the webpage (e.g. through a post or comment) and leverages the gadgets (pieces of js code)
living in the existing javascript code to transform it into executable code. This vulnerability can lead
to cross-site scripting (XSS) on websites that include Webpack-generated files and allow users to inject
certain scriptless HTML tags with improperly sanitized name or id attributes. This issue has been
addressed in release version 5.94.0. All users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for
this issue. (CVE-2024-43788)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
