  - Bleve is a text indexing library for go. Bleve includes HTTP utilities under bleve/http package, that are
    used by its sample application. These HTTP methods pave way for exploitation of a node's filesystem where
    the bleve index resides, if the user has used bleve's own HTTP (bleve/http) handlers for exposing the
    access to the indexes. For instance, the CreateIndexHandler (`http/index_create.go`) and
    DeleteIndexHandler (`http/index_delete.go`) enable an attacker to create a bleve index (directory
    structure) anywhere where the user running the server has the write permissions and to delete recursively
    any directory owned by the same user account. Users who have used the bleve/http package for exposing
    access to bleve index without the explicit handling for the Role Based Access Controls(RBAC) of the index
    assets would be impacted by this issue. Version 2.5.0 relocated the `http/` dir used _only_ by bleve-
    explorer to `blevesearch/bleve-explorer`, thereby addressing the issue. However, the http package is
    purely intended to be used for demonstration purposes. Bleve was never designed handle the RBACs, nor it
    was ever advertised to be used in that way. The collaborators of this project have decided to stay away
    from adding any authentication or authorization to bleve project at the moment. The bleve/http package is
    mainly for demonstration purposes and it lacks exhaustive validation of the user inputs as well as any
    authentication and authorization measures. It is recommended to not use bleve/http in production use
    cases. (CVE-2022-31022)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
