[R1] Tenable Network Monitor Version 6.5.3 Fixes Multiple Vulnerabilities Arnie Cabral
Nessus Network Monitor leverages third-party software to help provide underlying functionality. Several of the third-party components (libxml2, libxslt, expat, c-ares, curl, sqlite) were found to contain vulnerabilities, and updated versions have been made available by the providers.
Out of caution and in line with best practice, Tenable has opted to upgrade these components to address the potential impact of the issues. Nessus Network Monitor version 6.5.3 updates libxml2 to version 2.13.9, libxslt to version 1.1.45, expat to version 2.7.3, c-ares to version 1.34.6, curl to 8.17.0 and sqlite to version 3.49.0.
