  - in-toto is a framework to protect supply chain integrity. The in-toto configuration is read from various
    directories and allows users to configure the behavior of the framework. The files are from directories
    following the XDG base directory specification. In versions 1.4.0 and prior, among the files read is
    `.in_totorc` which is a hidden file in the directory in which in-toto is run. If an attacker controls the
    inputs to a supply chain step, they can mask their activities by also passing in an `.in_totorc` file that
    includes the necessary exclude patterns and settings. RC files are widely used in other systems and
    security issues have been discovered in their implementations as well. Maintainers found in their
    conversations with in-toto adopters that `in_totorc` is not their preferred way to configure in-toto. As
    none of the options supported in `in_totorc` is unique, and can be set elsewhere using API parameters or
    CLI arguments, the maintainers decided to drop support for `in_totorc`. in-toto's `user_settings` module
    has been dropped altogether in commit 3a21d84f40811b7d191fa7bd17265c1f99599afd. Users may also sandbox
    functionary code as a security measure. (CVE-2023-32076)

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