According to its self-reported version number, the Puppet Enterprise install on the remote host is later than version 1.0 but prior to 1.2.5 / 2.0.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities.
Multiple cross-site scripting flaws exist where unspecified input is not validated before being returned to the user. This could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code within the browser and server trust relationship.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues or otherwise determine if the patch has been applied. But, has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
