Nessus scan discovery

We ran a Nessus scan recently and it came back with a Medium security vulnerability. I was wondering if anyone knew how to fix it. Thanks!

  • By the WAC are you referring to the Windows Admin Center?
    No , it should be safe, I guess it could be a false-positive and I advise you to check with Nessus's support.

    What web server are you running?
    In case you are running IIS, then we might be able to help you. However, in case you are using third-party web service such as Apache , you need to check with them and normally you have to update them.

      Hi Reza_Ameri,

      Thank you for responding and offering to assist me.

       

      Windows Admin Center is running on a Windows 10 21H1 Workstation. Looks like IIS is the same version.

        Try check for update and see if there is any pending update on the Windows Server.
        IIS receives updates through the Windows Update.
        Do you have any web applications running on the server?
