This security advisory describes one high risk vulnerability.
Risk: High
CVSSv3: 7.1 [CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C] [PCI]
CVE-ID: CVE-2019-5440
CWE-ID:
CWE-338 - Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG)
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
Use of cryptographically weak PRNG in the password recovery token generation of Revive Adserver < v4.2.1 causes a potential authentication bypass attack if an attacker exploits the password recovery functionality. In lib/OA/Dal/PasswordRecovery.php, the function generateRecoveryId() generates a password reset token that relies on the PHP uniqid function and consequently depends only on the current server time, which is often visible in an HTTP Date header.
MitigationInstall update from vendor's website.
Vulnerable software versionsRevive Adserver: 4.2.0
