"The version of Atlassian Jira Server running on the remote host is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
JRASERVER-78199 advisory.
- DOMPurify is a DOM-only, super-fast, uber-tolerant XSS sanitizer for HTML, MathML and SVG. It has been
discovered that malicious HTML using special nesting techniques can bypass the depth checking added to
DOMPurify in recent releases. It was also possible to use Prototype Pollution to weaken the depth check.
This renders dompurify unable to avoid cross site scripting (XSS) attacks. This issue has been addressed
in versions 2.5.4 and 3.1.3 of DOMPurify. All users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds
for this vulnerability. (CVE-2024-45801)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
