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

Out of caution and in line with good practice, Tenable has opted to upgrade the Underscore.js component to address the potential impact of the issue. Nessus 10.1.0 updates Underscore.js to version 1.13.1 to address the identified vulnerability.
