The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 21.10 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5340-1 advisory.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Enhanced Image (aka image2) plugin for CKEditor (in versions 4.5.10 through 4.9.1; fixed in 4.9.2), as used in Drupal 8 before 8.4.7 and 8.5.x before 8.5.2 and other products, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script through a crafted IMG element.
(CVE-2018-9861)
A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the HTML Data Processor for CKEditor 4.0 before 4.14 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script through a crafted protected comment (with the cke_protected syntax). (CVE-2020-9281)
ckeditor is an open source WYSIWYG HTML editor with rich content support. A vulnerability has been discovered in the clipboard Widget plugin if used alongside the undo feature. The vulnerability allows a user to abuse undo functionality using malformed widget HTML, which could result in executing JavaScript code. It affects all users using the CKEditor 4 plugins listed above at version >= 4.13.0. The problem has been recognized and patched. The fix will be available in version 4.16.2. (CVE-2021-32808)
ckeditor is an open source WYSIWYG HTML editor with rich content support. A potential vulnerability has been discovered in CKEditor 4 Clipboard package. The vulnerability allowed to abuse paste functionality using malformed HTML, which could result in injecting arbitrary HTML into the editor. It affects all users using the CKEditor 4 plugins listed above at version >= 4.5.2. The problem has been recognized and patched. The fix will be available in version 4.16.2.
(CVE-2021-32809)
In NTFS-3G versions < 2021.8.22, when a specially crafted MFT section is supplied in an NTFS image a heap buffer overflow can occur and allow for code execution. (CVE-2021-33289)
ckeditor is an open source WYSIWYG HTML editor with rich content support. A potential vulnerability has been discovered in CKEditor 4 Fake Objects package. The vulnerability allowed to inject malformed Fake Objects HTML, which could result in executing JavaScript code. It affects all users using the CKEditor 4 plugins listed above at version < 4.16.2. The problem has been recognized and patched. The fix will be available in version 4.16.2. (CVE-2021-37695)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
