The version of Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager (SEPM) installed on the remote host is prior to 14.3. It is therefore affected by the following vulnerabilities:
An out of bounds read error exists. An authenticated, local attacker can exploit this issue to disclose memory contents. (CVE-2020-5833)
A directory traversal vulnerability exists. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this issue to determine the size of files in a directory. (CVE-2020-5834)
An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists due to a race condition in client remote deployment. An authenticated, local attacker can exploit this issue to gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2020-5835)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
