The version of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS running on the remote host is 8.1.x prior to 8.1.25 or 9.0.x prior to 9.0.17 or 9.1.x prior to 9.1.16 or 10.0.x prior to 10.0.12 or 10.1.x prior to 10.1.9 or 10.2.x prior to 10.2.4 or 11.0.x prior to 11.0.1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.

  • A DOM-Based cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software enables a remote attacker to execute a JavaScript payload in the context of an administrator’s browser when they view a specifically crafted link to the PAN-OS web interface. (CVE-2023-6790)

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