Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.


1) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-2300)

CWE-ID: CWE-352 - Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site request forgery attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of the HTTP request origin. A remote attacker can trick the victim to visit a specially crafted web page and perform arbitrary actions on behalf of the victim on the vulnerable website.


3) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-2302)

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

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to missing permission check in an HTTP endpoint. A remote user with Overall/Read permission can access the domain health check diagnostic page.


4) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-2301)

CWE-ID: CWE-287 - Improper Authentication

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication process.

The vulnerability exists due to the provided password is not used when looking up an applicable cache entry when run in Windows/ADSI mode. A remote attacker can log in as any user using any password while a successful authentication of that user is still in the cache.


5) Use of hard-coded credentials (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-2299)

CWE-ID: CWE-798 - Use of Hard-coded Credentials

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain full access to vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to presence of hard-coded credentials in application code within the LDAP-based mode. A remote unauthenticated attacker can access the affected system using the hard-coded credentials.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
