[R1] Nessus Versions 8.15.3 and 10.1.1 Fix Multiple Third-Party 
Vulnerabilities

Critical

Synopsis

Nessus leverages third-party software to help provide underlying
functionality.
One of the third-party components (Expat) was found to contain
vulnerabilities, and an updated version has been made available
by the provider.

Out of caution and in line with best practice, Tenable has opted
to upgrade the Expat component to address the potential impact of
the issue. Nessus 10.1.1 and Nessus 8.15.3 update Expat to version
2.4.4 to address the identified vulnerability.


Solution

Tenable has released Nessus 10.1.1 and Nessus 8.15.3 to address
these issues.
The installation files can be obtained from the Tenable Downloads
Portal (https://www.tenable.com/downloads/nessus ).
