The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application. A remote authenticated attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system.


4) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-11644)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication process.

The vulnerability exists due to an error in when processing authentication requests. A remote authenticated attacker can fool users of foreign domains with fictional audit messages/alerts of their choice, bypass authentication process and gain unauthorized access to the application.


5) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-11645)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources. A remote authenticated attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack on GateManager instances.


6) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-11646)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application. A remote authenticated attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system.
