"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 7.02, has tuned packages installed that are affected by a
vulnerability:
- A script injection vulnerability was identified in the Tuned package. The `instance_create()` D-Bus
function can be called by locally logged-in users without authentication. This flaw allows a local non-
privileged user to execute a D-Bus call with `script_pre` or `script_post` options that permit arbitrary
scripts with their absolute paths to be passed. These user or attacker-controlled executable scripts or
programs could then be executed by Tuned with root privileges that could allow attackers to local
privilege escalation. (CVE-2024-52336)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
