"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- In Eclipse Jetty versions 1.0 thru 9.4.32.v20200930, 10.0.0.alpha1 thru 10.0.0.beta2, and 11.0.0.alpha1
thru 11.0.0.beta2O, on Unix like systems, the system's temporary directory is shared between all users on
that system. A collocated user can observe the process of creating a temporary sub directory in the shared
temporary directory and race to complete the creation of the temporary subdirectory. If the attacker wins
the race then they will have read and write permission to the subdirectory used to unpack web
applications, including their WEB-INF/lib jar files and JSP files. If any code is ever executed out of
this temporary directory, this can lead to a local privilege escalation vulnerability. (CVE-2020-27216)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
