The version of VirtualBox installed on the remote host is prior to 6.1.28. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the October 2021 CPU advisory:

  • An easily exploitable vulnerability in the core component of Oracle VirtualBox that allows a low-privileged, authenticated attacker to takeover VirtualBox. (CVE-2021-35538)

  • An easily exploitable vulnerability in the core component of Oracle VirtualBox that allows a highly privileged, authenticated attacker to impact confidentiality and availability. (CVE-2021-35545)

  • An easily exploitable vulnerability in the core component of Oracle VirtualBox that allows a low privileged, authenticated attacker to impact availability. (CVE-2021-35540)

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