"According to its self-reported version, the Tenable Nessus application running on the remote host is prior to 10.5.7. It
is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TNS-2023-39 advisory.

  - An arbitrary file write vulnerability exists where an authenticated, remote attacker with administrator
    privileges on the Nessus application could alter Nessus Rules variables to overwrite arbitrary files on
    the remote host, which could lead to a denial of service condition. Tenable has released Nessus
    10.5.7 to address these issues. The installation files can only be obtained via the Nessus Feed.
    (CVE-2023-6062)

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