Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.

1) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-2268)

CWE-ID: CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:A/U:Green

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.

views/Index.php in the Install module in vTiger 6.0 before Security Patch 2 does not properly restrict access, which allows remote attackers to re-install the application via a request that sets the X-Requested-With HTTP header, as demonstrated by executing arbitrary PHP code via the db_name parameter.

Remediation

Install update from vendor's website.
