According to its self-reported version, the instance of Joomla! running on the remote web server is 1.7.x prior to 3.9.16. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.
Missing token checks in the image actions of com_templates causes CSRF vulnerabilities.
(CVE-2020-10241)
Inadequate handling of CSS selectors in the Protostar and Beez3 JavaScript allow XSS attacks. (CVE-2020-10242)
Various actions in com_templates lack the required ACL checks, leading to various potential attack vectors.
(CVE-2020-10238)
Missing length checks in the user table can lead to the creation of users with duplicate usernames and/or email addresses. (CVE-2020-10240)
Incorrect Access Control in the SQL fieldtype of com_fields allows access for non-superadmin users.
(CVE-2020-10239)
The lack of type casting of a variable in SQL statement leads to a SQL injection vulnerability in the Featured Articles frontend menutype. (CVE-2020-10243)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
