Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.88%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
Nessus versions 8.2.1 and earlier were found to contain a stored XSS vulnerability due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An authenticated, remote attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability via a specially crafted request to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser session. Tenable has released Nessus 8.2.2 to address this issue.
