Description

The following information is for Scan Diagnostic purposes only, and is not indicative of a detected vulnerability.

The scanning user encountered access denied errors while attempting to read one or more files on the target file system.

The scanning user requires read access to read file content and file metadata on the target in order to fingerprint installed software, detect certain vulnerabilities and assess certain policies. Without this access, scan results will have reduced accuracy.
