"According to its self-reported version, the instance of Dotnetnuke running on the remote web server is prior to 10.3.3.
It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.

  - An authorization vulnerability could allow an authenticated user to retrieve file names and metadata from
    folders they are not authorized to browse. Sites using restricted folders should upgrade to a patched
    release to ensure folder access permissions are consistently enforced. A vulnerability was identified in
    the platform's file management functionality where authorization checks for retrieving file information
    were inconsistent with those used for folder browsing. Under certain conditions, an authenticated user
    with minimal privileges could obtain file names and related metadata from folders that were otherwise
    inaccessible to them. Although the vulnerability does not expose the contents of affected files, the
    disclosure of file names and metadata may reveal sensitive information about protected resources and could
    facilitate targeted follow-on attacks against those assets. (GHSA-74j7-h73j-qmc9)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
