"A vulnerability in the Clientless SSL VPN (WebVPN) portal of Cisco
Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) and Cisco Firepower Threat Defense
(FTD) Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to
conduct a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against a user of the web-
based management interface of an affected device. The vulnerability is
due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input by the web-based
management interface of an affected device. An attacker could exploit
this vulnerability by persuading a user of the interface to click a
crafted link. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute
arbitrary script code in the context of the interface or allow the
attacker to access sensitive browser-based information.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
