  - Relative path traversal in Microsoft PowerShell Core allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a
    network. (CVE-2026-70337)

  - Server-side request forgery (SSRF) in Microsoft PowerShell Core allows an unauthorized attacker to disclose
    information over a network. (CVE-2026-58612)

  - Improper control of generation of code ('code injection') in Microsoft PowerShell allows an unauthorized
    attacker to bypass a security feature locally. (CVE-2026-70338)

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