"The version of Atlassian Confluence Server running on the remote host is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in
the CONFSERVER-99568 advisory.
- XStream is a simple library to serialize objects to XML and back again. This vulnerability may allow a
remote attacker to terminate the application with a stack overflow error resulting in a denial of service
only by manipulating the processed input stream when XStream is configured to use the BinaryStreamDriver.
XStream 1.4.21 has been patched to detect the manipulation in the binary input stream causing the the
stack overflow and raises an InputManipulationException instead. Users are advised to upgrade. Users
unable to upgrade may catch the StackOverflowError in the client code calling XStream if XStream is
configured to use the BinaryStreamDriver. (CVE-2024-47072)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
